no. it probably an aura or something like that. i have complex partials into generalized grand mals (focal onset impaired awareness into tonic clonics). first i have an aura, then partial, then grand mals. there is more than 1 type of seizure. this may help.

I have absence seizures, and they also diagnosed me with having solar ray something something, anyway it depends on how the rays reflect. So overcast days are normally worse for me. They cause the jolting, if I wear sunglasses when I am outside it helps. I work in an office and I don't ever have them while I am indoors. I can get them when I first walk outside, I have had people look around thinking I was dodging a bee before... LOL.. So I would say you are experiencing something similar. I have had them since I was a teen that I can recall... I am now 47..

They're probably just muscle spasms. Most likely not part of a seizure, a lot of epileptics get them. I used to get them in my legs. Could be part of your condition or a reaction to medication. Best to talk to your neurologist about it. And mini tonic clonics aren't a thing.
