Well so far my plan was to dive with a min. of 3 people in the group and only doing so when I have been seizure free for 1 year. It is a relief to know there are some who will still dive with someone who has problems like this, even if there are much stricter safety rules. My situation is actually getting me to think about what medical conditions I would not mind my diving partner to have. Something I had not really considered before.

I have been diving before, and the stress of diving frequently is something I will have to experiment with to know if it will cause seizures. I am going to see a specialist about this type of seizure soon, all I know right now is major life changes, chronic pain, post traumatic stress disorder, things like that can cause it. It has the same causes as angina does, it just expresses itself with seizures instead of chest pain and shortness of breath. Obviously with a history of seizures there is always the chance you may have them again in the future.
