    I'm sure he is just worn out as that was a lot for him to remember, plus I'm sure the stress didn't help. Big step for both of you :)

    brizzled is right a lot of men would never seek any sort of help, I know my OH wouldn't, so that is an achievement in itself. Glad he managed it without any help, so another milestone reached! Hopefully by now you will have escaped the chance of another seizure scare.

  • Thank you both! I'm waaaaaaay more relaxed about it now as he seems 'normal' (well for him anyway :rotfl:). Think it shook me more than I realised that there were no real warning signs for the last seizure, so now everything is a potential sign!

    Seek help / pushed into it, och it's all the same :rotfl::rotfl:

    Hey if he is doing what he is told, then that's one in the win column in my book Lucky ;) glad it went smoothly for him anyway!!

  • Fantastic that DH managed all that alone, I bet it was quite worrying leaving him to it though! Ps on the weigh in...I did a little experiment once, i went and got weighed and weighed X amount. Then I went and had a wee and asked them to weigh me again and I weighed X - 1lb !!! :eek: so if I ever weigh more than I think I should I just put it down to needing a wee now ;)

    When I used to go to WeightWatchers there was always a huge queue at the toilet before weigh in and it was strip off belts, shoes and jewellery time in the weigh in queue!
