Temporal Lobe Seizures and Premonitions

Mon, 09/21/2015 - 21:06

I think I have been suffering from TLE since 2009.  Over the past couple of weeks I've been seeing psychologists (3) and they believe that I have TLE and PTSD.  Since 2009 I have had a few moments where I legitimately think I was able to see a vague dreamy version of the future.  I believe that these moments are the direct result of my seizures and extreme stress at the same time.  How accurate are people with TLE and their predictions?  My most recent one was terribly hard on me (and those that love me) but incredibly accurate.  While I was in no state to record this information, everything was fuzzy during and still is, my friend was there and I was able to tell him some of the things I saw (felt more like remembering forward).  I was right about things that I in no way could possibly have known.  Has anybody else had predictions that were too accurate to be luck?  If so I am curious to know if I can try to replicate it.  It was extremely hard on me and I'm concerned about my health but I feel like what happened was too special to ignore and avoid just because it sucked.  I realize I sound crazy but that is not the case.
