I'll be off a while (until later). I thnk my Moosoft Fixes finally came
through.
Did the Dr. ever tell you which area of the Brain your seizures appear to
start from? (the seizure focus). There MIGHT be something under
http://efa.org under Auras of various types. I think whether it's a sound,
sensation, odour or taste etc. depends on the type and location of above
szr. types.
(Mine is Right Temporal Lobe so I used to get a Deja Vu feeling, dizzy
sensations, often a taste or aroma or Lemon. I also got an inverse effect
where Strong Lemon Odoured Cleaners, Bleaches etc. would start a dizzy Aura
feeling, when I hadn't had one for some time.)
You might also take a Look under Simple Partial ? seizure types, since
the Auras etc. of some of the types might be grouped under those. You
Might be getting some of those?
Have you had the same medications and control for quite a long time, so
that it's not the current med. levels wearing off? (I haven't needed a dose
change, for example, since ~1995/6 for Complex Partial = Temporal Lobe
seizures.)
Oh, and some of the Auras (if you hadn't seen those before, include
Feelings that aren't necessarily there --> Deja Vu feeling for Right
Temporal lobe, Jamais Vu (for left side), where your own place might feel
like you're in a stranger's house, etc. for other types. Either some of
those symptoms might be listed under the Ep. Foundation of America above, or
under Julie's First aid for seizures chart? Some of those describe the
szr. types that have particular auras.)
