This is one of the warning signs so pay attention to this

It is both. We usually just think of it as an aura, especially if we have them prior to other types of seizures, but an aura actually is a simple partial seizure. Remember a seizure is simply an electrical discharge in the brain and does not necessarily involve moving, falling down, etc.

An aura, is actually defined as a seizure. So, your brain is experiencing both. I have had this happen to me many times.

It's an aura I have the same experience. Sometimes you can have that & after you have a seizure or sometimes you don't.
