Yes it is possible to become partially paralyzed during and after a seizure. It all has to do with, what part of the brain, the seizures are active. So your seizures could be hit a part of the brain, that works on how we move our arms and legs.
Then there are other who seizure and instantly go through emotional or behavioral change, like crying, anger, scream, and ect. But before all that , they were in a good mood . There are many other types of examples to these types of episodes.
Everyone is different. Some may get paralyzed after the seizure, some may have trouble speaking out the words , may become over emotional, angry, depressed and ect. There are other things that happen to us after the seizures. It mainly all depends on the part of the brain, the seizures hit, , to how we react after the seizures.
