My daughter was found in the middle of the night, unconscious and seizing on her kitchen floor.

She's 28 years old, not a child. She was taken to the local hospital where they did a CT scan and informed her that she didn’t have a seizure because if she had, she would have wet her pants. Now mind you, she’s not a lady who holds her tongue, but she felt like a train and ran her down and had no fight in her.

How should this be dealt with after the fact?

Se have a family history of Epilepsy. We all know what it looks like. How can a medical professional say something like this?

My father in law died last February 2022, he first got diagnosed in March 21, they said he will be fine, by June '21 he was in Chemo, they kept telling him that it was nothing to worry about, he was getting progressively worse, they then did every scan etc and cleared him as being ok to have this major and life altering operation, after which he was never the same again, he actually died after the operation and they "saved" him, but he just lived through hell for the next 5 months until his demise

My point, several times by several people he was told it was OK or something and nothing.. I feel like these people don't have a clue

@SW-User Sorry for your loss. 😔💔🤗😇🙏❤️
My father died April 2020 at 89.
He went into the hospital because he had a UTI caused from chronic abuse of over the counter laxatives. Was treated for about 2 weeks for UTI, fell in the middle of the night, hurt his head, slight concussion. Transfer to a better hospital to have an scan of his injury, said he was fine, discharged him back to the first hospital and then transferred to a nursing home. Died of a heart attack less than 24 hours later. My mother died in 2014 at same hospital.. fuck.🙄🤷‍♀️😡💔😇😇🙏🙏

@Montanaman I'm so sorry to hear that too😣🙏, I know we all die eventually, sometimes it seems like we believe that the doctors are magicians and they just aren't

@SW-User My aunt went through something similar. She was 79, has osteoporosis, a bit of dementia. She kept falling and breaking her bones, which we assumed the answer was the osteoporosis. But no! 5 days before she died they figured out she had Lukenia. She died on Valentine's day. Her husband still bought her flowers though, jsut in case she woke up.

What country do you live in? It has a lot to do with the level and quality of medical care you receive.
