That sucks...... can I borrow your bike? All kidding aside that's scary. Just imagine if that had happened on the trail or in an isolated area where there was no help to be found. Hopefully test result will reveal the root cause of the seizure to help prevent any reoccurrences. Your as tough as they come, you should bounce back quick. Take Care. By the way I was going to fix Spaghetti for dinner. On to plan B. |

| That is scary. I know a lot semi truck accidents have happened due to the drive having a heart attack or seizure. I had a good friend one that was standing out in his yard talking to a neighbor and all of a sudden....BAM.....he passed out. Doctors ran test and never found a single thing that would cause him to pass out. That has been over 5 years and has never happened again. Weird stuff. Get well soon Tonybob. |

| my hair-brained opinion is that it's all those flourescent lights, they rely on retinal retention so that they can operate more efficiently, basically they're strobe lights set at a very high speed. Only time I've been around someone having a seizure was in a grocery store and a classroom at U.K. I don't really believe my theory, but it's still a theory. |

| Reaction to a bad batch of EPO? I remember that in England (I think) the video for Wang Chung was out lawed due to kids could have seizures while watching it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMylfkSDKV0 Don't click on the link Tonybob. Hope you are doing good. |

Wow, I have been crying over a broken leg. My doc has always told me minor back injuries can cause a lot of pain, I can only Imagine what a major one like this could cause. Did the fall from the seizure break the back or was the seizure a symptom of the broken back? Sorry to hear about this, best wishes for speedy recovery! |
