I have Epilepsy Seizures that showed up a long time ago through my Temporal Lobe on my left side. It has spread quickly over to my right side. This was back when I did my very first EEG as a child at the age of two. The last neurologist I saw didn't make sense because he stated to me that I was having seizures around my head which showed on my EEG fairly recent.

Prior to surgery I was taken off 2 drugs. They were counteracting with one another. Dosage increased after surgery.

My Temporal Lobe Seizures start on the left side of my brain but spread to the right side too.

Oh boy, you've been given an awfully large amount of seizure activity to deal with. Thank you for sharing this!

Hi Big George. I have temporal lobe epilepsy. With the auras and the seizures. I read the piece on what to do when having an aura, the symptoms for others to watch for and how different people have different symptoms with some basic symptoms similar. For instance if I lay down when I get a headache and feel sick to my stomach I do not go into a full blown seizure. Other say they don't have to lay down the headache and feeling sick to your stomach happens then the siezures comes immediately after. I hope this helps. Maybe others have a better explanation. I'm learning and soaking in all this information as well
