Well that was a big disaster.
Amazingly, though, 6 days after a grand mal seizure I'm pretty much back to normal. With, of course, the residual need to find out exactly why it happened - I have a pretty good idea and for the most part I can prevent it from happening again, but the fact remains that I have freakishly high blood pressure, which is a serious risk factor. I don't fit the profile at ALL - I'm a healthy weight, I exercise regularily, I eat well (NO saturated/trans fat, low sodium, plenty calcium amd magnesium) So, I'm confused, and a litte worried.

I suspect you went into a seizure, and if in a public place they rushed you to ER. If so the common response can be blood pressure. Reallity they are not specialists and are generalists and only provide possibilities.
I have someone close that started having seizures at 26, ever since she has been on seizure free medication and is free of seizures now for 6 years. She was also pretty healthy, we worked out every day, lots of water and kept clear of fast or fried foods.
I don't want to freak you out, but good eating and great exercise may not do the trick.
Only wishing you the best of health. Any ? feel free to ask away
