This is my disability I have been struggling with for the last year.

Seeing an neurologist today.

Hemiplegic migraines causes sezuires and due to this I am in wheelchair.

Does anyone else suffer with this or something similar?

    Good luck at your appointment @sparkleapril! I've had these in the past, but I haven't had a full blown one for quite a while now which I'm really grateful for. Hope you can get some answers and support, it can be really horrible to deal with!

    Feel abit **** but relieved that I know what's wrong and that I can move forward the best I can.

    Finally they have listened to me that I am right.
