Can You Guys Tell When You're About To Go Into A Seizure Or Had A Seizure

I can tell when I'm about to go into a seizure and when I wake up from a seizure that I had Because my vision goes blurry and blackout.Then all of a sudden,I wake up on the ground or on a bed.One night on may 8 2024,I had a seizure and busted my head open but my doctor Tried to say that it probably wasn't a seizure since there was no one to witness it And after I was rushed to the hospital, I also had another seizure in the ambulance. So I'm pretty sure it was a seizure.What do you guys think

Yes. There have also been times when I felt a seizure coming, that I could stop it before it started!

I can't tell when I am going to have them. I completely blackout. But I can tell when I have had one. I have a massive headache and when I bend over for something. My brain feels like it going to explode.

I get a current flow warning before the seizure takes place. In many cases, I can use the magnet of the VNS then wipe out the seizure. There are times that I have felt the current flow then it would go POOF! My best logical guess when that happens the DBS device has taken over and done it's job to clear out the active current.
