I'm not sure, but I think certain sounds or noises can trigger my seizures. Does anyone else know if this can be?

Yes. For certain. I have not had flashing lights/strobe light reactions in the testing. But sounds, and potential other visuals with sounds, I get myoclonic reactions, twitching.

Hi @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member. I'm not sure but you maybe having an Aura.
I have a close friend who hears heavy metal guitars 🎸 for his aura , before he goes into a seizure.

when I was an adolescent I had an issue when I would hear the sound of a bass from a rock band, would send me into a seizure. It was the most oddest thing but as time passed that sound no longer bothers me like it did.

Yes, definitely. Strobe lights/ flashing lights, being frightened/scared unintentionally.
