Do Any Body Have Seizures Due To Stress Or Fatigue With No Auras?

Yes, the only seizures that I have an aura for are Focal Cognitive Aware (Simple Partial). If I have any other seizure, then I require someone else to tell me it happened and about the details. Even my full seizures are followed by a Focal Cognitive Impaired (Complex Partial) seizure, thus it has been about 20 years since the last time that I awoke from a full seizure on the floor. Right now, I am in a long-term seizure free state for the last year and 5 months.

Be aware that epilepsy is a mutating disorder, thus you might have auras as a warning for your seizures initially (as I did) but later on the seizures mutate and the auras can come in barrages with no seizure and some of your seizures can no longer have an aura before them.

I always wanted an aura, but alas I don’t have one. I am not being sarcastic either. I really would like a warning of the on coming storm.

While I worked a very stressful job at a call center it brought forth more seizures and I very rarely have had an aura in the decades I've had epilepsy

Thank you Roy! As of 12:01am today, it is exactly 1.5 years of being seizure free.
