I've had complex partial seizures since 1994 but never knew what they were. Had them every 6 months or so over a 2-3 day period. Had a tonic-clonic seizure in 2008, and was diagnosed with complex partials with secondary generalization. Since then seizures have increased drastically. I'm a salesman for a cell phone company, so the seizures affect me drastically on occasion. Not being able to work sometimes, having them at work in the middle of a sale. My family has been VERY supportive of me, which is a HUGE help in dealing with this condition.
