It sounds like you had a seizure. My daughter had her first seizure at 19, a few months after receiving the Gardasil vaccine. She is now on anti-seizure medications and her seizures are well managed. I know it can be very scary.
Have you had the Gardasil vaccine within the last year and did you faint, get dizzy, nauseated or light headed when you had any of the injections? If so....you may be having a adverse reaction to the vaccine. There are literally thousands of girls experiencing the exact same thing. Please contact the National Vaccine Information Center to report the incident if you did have the vaccine.

Hi my name is Elizabeth and I am 26yrs old and have partial seizures. I been epileptic for about 12 years now. I have them controlled right now with my medication. Well I had all this symptoms your talking about, it did turn out it was seizures what i was having. I used to have many auras which felt like electricity going through all my body. I will recomend you to go to a neurologist and ask to have an EGG done or an MRI. There they will know what is causing the feelings you get. Wish you the best.
