I Do Not Have Auras, But Am Told My Face Looks Different If I Am About To Have A Seizure.

It is now called Partial Awareness Seizures. If I pay attention to Triggers, do not have them on my meds and dosages.

I've felt these many times. No matter what you call them, they are siezures. Write them in your journals with the length and as much detail as possible. If you have a witness have them write in your journal. Take journals to all MD appointments! MD change may help? Less stress More rest. Exercise. Eat well. Take RX as prescribed. Enjoying your life is important. Focus on positive thoughts and energy. Prayers continue with FAITH TRUST STRENGTH HOPE JOY LAUGHTER HAPPINESS and LOVE ALWAYS LOVE!

@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member sometimes drs will stick with there old ways (partials). some drs will get a mix of the 2 (partial aware or simple focal or ect). and some will get the new terms (focal onset aware and focal onset impared awareness). i try to get the all the new terms but i was taught simple partial and complex partial.

It happens! Be careful, this is why I don't drive swim bicycle cook or use a knife. BLANK OUT NOT GOOD. Write in journal and take journal to MD. Adjustment or adjuctive RX may be necessary. Take care of yourself!β˜€
