Cancer In C5 Vertebrae For Which Radiation Was Given. Foci Of Prolongation In Cerebral White Matter. Are Seizures Normal In Such Condition?
I have had cancer in my c5 vertebrae. And had to wait 9 months for radiation treatments now I have seizures. The mei says that there are scattered foçi of t2 prolongation in cerebral white matter. I have horrible head aches. And sometimes when I have my seizures I forget days before and after them. My family says that I act normal sometimes "crazy"like talking about stuff that hasn't happened or not remembering dates. What ive said and had been told to me. I was in the hospital during my 1st one but don't remember 5alking to anyone or going there orcoming home. Is this the cause and are these normal seizures?
