Does anybody have similar symptoms or seizures

Mon, 12/04/2017 - 16:30
I've been having partial seizures since I was a child. Don't remember the exact date, but I'm assuming I hit my head at some point. I only recently went to a neurologist at age 20 (currently 25). I always thought my episodes were muscle cramps & or brain cramps. I have always found I only have episodes when my body goes from lying still to actively moving. Example 100m dash, sports. It only affects my left side of my body for about 15 seconds. I know it's going to happen because I get a tingle in my stomach or legs. I was on medication for about a year & was relatively healthy for the next two years. My episodes have started again & I am going to see a neurologist again. I have more electrical activity in one side of my brain. Anybody else experience this? I tend to move slower because I don't want a seizure to erupt. Thank you so much and have a great day.
