Three days into the ultram 200mg, once a day, I experienced a "tonic clonic seizure" what is formally known as a grand mal seizure. From what my husband tells me it was so severe that he had to call the paramedics. I don't remember the entire seizure at all. I faintly remember seeing 4 heads coming to me down the hallway, and that was all I remember. John, my husband told me that was the paramedics and the fire department. Since they did not see the seizure taking place I was not taken to the emergency room or hospital. I do remember laying on the bed for 4 days after the seizure unable to move, eat or drink. I was completely exhausted. I've a follow up appointment with my primary care physician on Tuesday, as in required by law to be seen and I believe I may have to sign a paper requiring me not to drive for the next 6 months. I'm worried to say the least. I'd never had a seizure before in my life and I'm 47 years old now. I'm still experiencing nausea, inability to eat...even though its been just 2 weeks since the seizure. I have been going through depression and extreme exhaustion and not wanting to be alone in a room since the seizure. The abdominal pains feel almost like when a menstrual period will start, severe enough to make one bend over double and an aching inside as well. Having had a hysterectomy over 7 years ago, I know that is not the issue.
