Do You Have Auras? Are They Always The Same Or Is It Different Each Time?

I seem to have different ones. Sometimes an overwhelming dizziness, sometimes it seems like there's a veil over one side of my vision.

I Live Alone With Complex Partial Seizures. I Never Had One While Asleep. Maybe Once A Year, I Will Go To Sleep After A Seizure. I Have A Medical Alert Dice & My Home Phone. Since I Took Myself Off Of Vimpat Morning & Afternoon 12/1022 I Haven't Had A Seizure Until 8/2023. Good Luck & Seizure-Free Day

All my auras were always different, regardless of whether they progressed into full tonic clonic seizures or not. Even though I haven’t had a seizure in a while, I still remember that, and am always on the lookout for any strange feelings coming over me.

Hope that helps you out with any concerns. Good luck and I hope you stay safe and seizure free this weekend…
