What kind of seizure am I having?
Thu, 03/03/2016 - 13:14Topic: New to Epilepsy.com
New to this site. I've had these "attacks" for over 10 years. Mentioned them to doctors several times and always got a look of "your out of your mind". Feeling comes on, basically paralyzes me. I am aware that its happening, but can't speak, usually about 30 sec. I've had them around people, and had them alone. After it passes, can't remember what I was doing during the seizure. But know I've had it. Very euphoric, out of body feeling. Waiting for results from EEG and MRI. Anybody else have this??
Yes many people have what you

Yes many people have what you posted. Auras. absence seizures or simple partial seizures can land within your feelings. Wait for the results of the tests and do listen to the neurologist. Ask questions.
