This Might Be Weird, But Does Anyone Get A Runny Nostril Before, During Or After A Sezuire?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Call me crazy but sometimes I know when I had a seizure (even silent ones) as one of my nostrils will become a little runny (stops after like a minute or two). Also feel fluid come out of my left ear from time to time (not earwax or from shower).

I can feel my seizures most of the time (alert complex partial seizures) and I have noticed this several times.

I won't be exposed to any irritates, no prior sinus like symptoms.

This odd because I never noticed. Now that I have read this I will pay closer attention. Today for instance I'm not sick, however I had a staring spell which I noticed but couldn't look away on my own, I then had my right nostril become runny, my right eye also became very watery, and then I became extremely tired which lasted for about 15 minutes then was back to normal other than a need to rush to bathroom to pee.

I had Epilepsy, Lichen Plantis and Allergies all come on at once so there could be a correlation.

Crazy right. Seems to be common for me. Kind of an early indicator if I’m not picking up on warning signs.

I know sinus issues are like a trigger. Been a lot of changes in weather and pollen here in Florida lately. Hasn’t been fun.
