On Tuesday night I had something that I'm unsure would be classified as one,I woke up with what felt like a bubble in my throat,that cleared then my arms started shaking and wouldn't stop,I could actually feel them shaking and I was fully alert. It resulted in a trip to hospital just to have a check up,came home,fell asleep on the couch and at some point had a actual seizure. It was freaky with the awake shaking since it had never happened before and it's got me stumped. Even the doctors were… read more
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member complex partial is called now focal onset impaired awareness and simple partials are now focal onset or focal onset aware. for me focal onset is too confusing so i call um partials.
there is a lot of types of seizures and there is of stuff in your body. i have complex partials (focal onset impaired awareness) and grand mals (tonic clonic) seizures. partials just mean haft of the brain are affected. you can talk (sort of) a walk. another thing i have is called auras. that is a seizures that gets you ready for a bad seizure. there are different ways to have an aura. i have a pins and needles or a tingling from my legs to my brain. then slowed speech and cant speak. for the partials i have the 'lip thing' and the 'ma thing'. i curl my lip and stay there until the seizure is over. and the other is every couple of words are mom or ma. i sometimes tighten my arms but that could be when i am having my auras or the lip thing or the ma thing.
Most definitely I have them all the time,I have them while driving,while at work,watching tv,just doing nothing,literally standing or sitting and talking with someone and have them I have different kinds so I can’t say at that moment or time what kind I have there is times I can’t remember that I’ve been through one place to another,or there’s times I don’t even remember doing a certain thing, it’s absolutely possible and it’s absolutely the scariest thing ever!!!
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member if everyone is aware when they have a seizure, what about us that have nocturnal seizures...I am unaware when I have seizures. Do your research.
Yes, don’t you do research. It’s common sense. Some people shouldn’t be on here for their ignorance and it’s obvious who these people are.
