Exercising again, headaches almost gone

4/23/2013

Here's the latest on my seizures and brain surgery:
I've started jogging the last couple weeks.  The most I've done was about 17 minutes, but it's a start.  After all, I hadn't been jogging in nearly 2 years.  It feels good to have the energy to do aerobic exercise and not wonder if I'll end up getting a seizure from it.  I only got a small headache on one run.  Other than that the headaches are nearly gone.  It seems I can go a week or so without a headache and then I'll get a few during the day.  The good thing is that they usually last from just a few seconds to a couple minutes.  The headaches that lasted several hours don't seem to have been around for awhile.  Of course, I am remaining seizure free.  I am very happy with the outcome of my right medial temporal lobectomy.
