Panic attack versus seizure
Sat, 02/28/2009 - 06:08What is the difference between a panic attack and a seizure? The seizure I had this evening started with a sheer panic attack and progressed into a complex partial seizure. I felt sheer terror at first working up my spine and then it generalized into a true seizure, where I lost consciousness.
Has anybody else had this happen to them? Any information or response would be grateful.
