Undiagnosed newbie

Hi there. I am brand new to this forum. I found epilepsy.com yesterday while looking up some information. I was diagnosed with depression 2 1/2 weeks ago. I was also diagnosed with an acute anxiety disorder and given some material to read. After going through a self-screening, my next question to my doctor was going to be about a full blown panic disorder. ...and then I saw it. Chapter 2 of the book I was given listed a whole bunch of medical causes for anxiety. Listed there, halfway down the list, was "Temporal Lobe Epilepsy". My oldest sister is epileptic. I have always associated epilepsy with the grand mal seizures she had. I got curious after that term played itself over and over and over again in my mind. I just wanted to know what it was, so I looked it up and found this site. You could have knocked me over with a feather. Simple partial seizures..... I recognized that description so thoroughly I almost started to cry. That happens to me at a minimum of once a week. I've always just thought I go a little spacey and that it's just a personality tick. I never made any sort of connection to epilepsy. I'm currently being medicated for the depression and my dosage goes up tomorrow. I have another doctor's appointment in three weeks. Right now, I'm struggling over whether I should call the doctor today with this information or wait for three weeks. It is, of course, totally possible that I just happen to go a little spacey, but the familiarity of the descriptions of "simple partial seizures" is going to drive me crazy till I talk to him. Especially considering the last one happened last night. The other thing that just killed me was the mood and behaviour 101 page, where it describes the long-term effects of seizures on the brain (ie forgetting words, using the wrong word, and not being able to recall the thing you just watched/read). Again...I thought that was just a personality tick, since it happens to my oldest sister (the one who is epileptic), too. Advice would be useful. I'm absolutely itching for as much information as I can get my hands on. I've never felt so free in a potential explanation for what is wrong with me. I'm not big on self-diagnosis, generally.... it's just that this is such an accurate description of what happens to me.
