Hello, I am from rajni, from India. i got my first seizure attack on 25 Dec, 2006. and the reason for my seizure is very surprising. i was cooking in kitchen and sun rays were coming from nearby window. i got severe pain in my head and i just started moving my right hand very fast on my right head side and continue it to the sun rays. within 5 minutes i collapsed. unconciousness, my hubby put me on bed.in just a few seconds i wake up.but with memory loss. having severe pain in my head. i recall my memory after 5-6 hours. my husband took me to doctor and after EEG, and MRI he started Zen-Retard 300 mg twice in a day. i am getting this tablet since 2006, though i did not get seizure after that, but when ever i saw sun-rays, my headache started and i want to do the same movement which is the cause of my seizure
