Like Stacy3 said, it's a warning signal you may or may not go into a seizure. The auras I had felt like a severe gas pain in the pit of my stomach and/or an out-of-body experience.

I also get deja vu- happened yesterday- but did not have a seizure. It's interesting to know that others also have an aura that is deja vu.

Does Anybody Know What It’s Like If You Seem To Keep Hearing The Same Phrases Or Questions?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

What’s odd is, it seems like it’s some kind of seizure, but I actually haven’t had a single one all day. So I’m wondering if the food I had affected something.

Interesting symptom.

I Have Questions That Hopefully Some Of You.
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

What is the difference between an aura and a petit seizure. When I have an aura in which can last for hours I feel like a riot is going on inside me. People have told me to say something. I don't always have a seizure. I don't want to be the boy that cried wolf all the time.
Thank you everyone for your patience with me. I am new on this on line and I don't know what I'm doing all the time.
Hope and pray everyone has a great day.
