Questioning my post-seizure side effects, any thoughts?

Wed, 03/04/2015 - 15:08

I'm 24 years old. I first discovered that I even had epilepsy in July of 2012, I believe it probably started from multiple concussions from sports growing up. I am able to control the seizures for the most part if I stay on top of my medicine, but I had two this morning. Now I've had a pulsating migraine in my right temple alone. The rest of my head is fine but the right temple is just pounding and when I cough or sneeze it's like getting punched upside the head. Is this normal? Does anyone else have similar symptoms?
