Asbestos Triggering Seizures

[Porkette]

Hi Nelson,
Welcome to the forum! Thank you so much for all of the info. I find it very interesting. I will have to make an appt. with my Epileptologist and see if this is what has increased my sz.
and if it is the school is going to have to deal with some legal business. I do know that at least 10 or more of my co workers over the yrs. have ended up with cancer and it makes me wonder
if this could also be what's causing the problem.
Since I go to a university hospital where students are learning this may be a good topic for the Drs. to teach the students. In the meantime try taking vitamin B12 1000 mcg. once a day
I found it did wonders reducing my sz. I wish you only the best of luck and May God Bless You!

I don't know anything about seizures but it would not surprise me if something that toxic triggered them.

Hi Sue,

I was just checking in to see if you ever got to the bottom of it. Hope you are doing well and I wish you the best of luck.

Hi Shimada,

Thanks for dropping me a line, yes I did find out what was causing my seizures and headaches, come to find out I'm cell phone sensitive which means the frequency that cell phones
use can trigger seizures for me especially when many people are using cell phones at the same time and this is what was going on in school both students and staff were using there
phones and in the long run that triggered seizures for me. My Epileptologist did a special e.e.g on me and he purposely had staff use there phones while I was having the e.e.g. done
but I didn't know it and each time they used their phone the spikes went really high in the e.e.g showing I was cell phone sensitive.
Wishing you only the best and May God Bless You!

Hi Porkette,

Sorry to hear about the increase in seizures. I certainly can understand that, am dealing with it too. I hope you have otherwise been well.

I can't remember hearing of asbestos directly being a trigger for a seizures. Headaches and migraines yes.
I do know that when doing asbestos abatement cleanups in California they are pretty strict, any and all that's exposed must be removed or rendered harmless. There are many regulations that must be followed in just the process of preparing and cleanup of & doing the the job itself.
