maybe nothing Today she came home from school and said that her left leg felt really horrible today  I asked what happened and she said she felt very strange then her leg felt it had lots of needles being put into it . She said it didn't hurt very much but that she couldn't move her leg for a while. She never mentioned anything to her teacher but looked worried when she explained it to me. I guessed maybe cramp but that hurts like mad so I'm not sure . Could this be seizure related or just one of those things. This happened to me once when I was a little older then her . Same thing I just couldn't move my leg at all for a few minutes. I never mentioned it to my mother .    |

| Yes, some people do experience a pins and needles feeling as an aura, but that is not the only possibility. It could be something as simple as having sat too long and it 'fell asleep'. I can get that feeling in my arms and it has nothing to do with E. Either way, document it for her next doctor visit. Hope all is well otherwise.  |

| I know what she is feeling, i have it every morning in my hands, iv had sense i was a kid, some times almost nothing and sometimes worse. Im having at this time in my right hand, its strange feeling. And mosly i only have it for maybe maximum 30 min, but it does mean i have not buttons on my clothes  when u have that u dont really wanne touch things! But last year i had one "big" one that involved my entire body which has never happened before and that was scary. And it just never went away i had for almost 3 hours. But u cant really do anything, just sleep it away. |

| Ok i talked to my mum, she said that it has to do with EP, it is an attack. And u should talk to the doc because he might have to adjust her meds. It might help. On me it never has, but its getting better and better the older i get. Now days its not every morning any longer and its not effecting me that much, or at least i can use my hands more then to hold a cup for a few sec i mean im even writing on my laptop now |

| When Rebecca was taking Lamictal, she had a weird side effect where her leg would spasm. It was like a heavy duty twitching that you could observe. I was told that it was a type of a seizure, and that I could give her ativan if it continued. My conclusion was, this had never happened before, nor did it happen when she took other medication. If a drug was producing new and different types of seizures, then it wasn't right for my daughter. She has never had them again. Now she is med free.

| Yes lamictal can cause myoclonic seizures. What about circulation? Hands and feet going to sleep? I only suggest these things cause I don't like to miss out and I don't like to over think things. Just a thought.

Does she have a history of seizures?
