Hi. If you do any searches you could try Temporal lobe epilepsy, but
the newer term (that includes the former TLE) might have information
under Complex Partial Seizures.   Note that after the basic onset of a
Simple Partial seizure (also called an Aura on some sites, and I was
looking above for symptoms of a distinctive Aura that usually signals a
Left or Right-based T.Lobe aura or seizure),  we're not Aware of what
happens or what we do.  You appear to be aware above? during what you
are having.
  I posted a longer note called "Websites of use to newer people"
dated Jan.31 on this group at 947AM Eastern (247PM Universal time).
 If you can find that post, it lists about 5 sites I've found useful,
and it's Followed with same title by about 5 other people adding sites
they have found of use with respect to Epilepsy.  (I haven't
re-composed that note  to merge the various addresses or I'd have put
it here.)
 If you can't locate it, repost here, and I'll cut/paste it back into
this message thread, in pieces, as I haven't updated my note to include
the other new sites that others here added.
  The US Ep. Foundation main site it at http://efa.org (I think) and 2
other sites were http://www.epilepsy.com and
http://www.epilepsyidaho.org/learn.htm  that is an educational part of
the Idaho Ep. association site. (Once you're into the Idaho site, you
can travel around and see other educational parts -- see comment next
paragraph of what might help tell why I didn't think this sounded like
TLE.)
 On the *last of those sites, if you don't find info. on the first 2
sites, look at "First Aid for Seizures" page in Idaho site. Note the
**Symptoms of the most common types of seizures.  I don't think most of
what you described  appear there.
 Usually Temporal Lobe damage can produce a feeling of Deja Vu
(already seen) where you might feel you've said this before, been here
before or already had this experience (when you haven't).  The Left
Temporal lobe can produce feelings of Jamais Vu (never seen) where your
own Place might feel like you're in a Stranger's house and are
extremely disoriented.   *Usually after the szr. becomes stronger, past
that Aura phase, you aren't aware what you do except if someone
witnesses it and tells you later when you 'come back'.
  Sometimes the Aura can include strange Tastes or Aromas distinctive
to Left or Right Temporal lobe damage.  You didn't mention any of those
(tastes or aromas) above, so I don't know why your Neuro would think it
was Temporal Lobe-based, as those are quite distinctive and 'real' to
those of us who've had them.
 Last (for now), have they run any EEGs or MRIs as part of above, that
makes the Neuro think what he did? Damage to one of the Temporal Lobes
would usually be visible on an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Image), and in
many cases EEG would show electrical problems there too.  (Some people
might have a clean EEG, but the MRI would often show damage if there
was any in one of the T.Lobes.  In fact the MRI would show all areas
where damage could exist.)   G./
