Hope i'm not being a pain


So, I know i'm asking lots of questions about the same sort of thing but I experienced more weird sensations this morning - not sure if partial seizures or not. I've always thought I only had tonic clonic but as i've learned about different seizure types it's made me wonder.
So anyway, i've had this fuzzy tingling feeling in/on the right side of my head. First time it went away and came back after about 30seconds. After that it went away and after about 5-6minutes same happened (again twice close together). After nearly 15mins it came back but this time only the once. Each time I only feel the sensation for approximately 5-10 seconds - very brief.
I am tired - I often have an afternoon nap because I get tired from work and meds but not lately. I've been doing plenty of exercise but I had a late night last night which I know isn't good.
I'm keeping a record of everything for the next time I see my neurologist but in the interim i'm just wondering - am I overreacting or is this a type of brief seizure.

Honestly Trinity, I don't know. It could be a type of seizure (check out the Epilepsy 101 thread in my signature....) and then again, it might not. Try to correct the screwy sleep schedule and make sure that you jot down in your journal about the odd sensations this morning and ask your neurologist when you see him/her.

I agree


with Skilly. It's hard to say, one way or the other. It could very well be more seizures, but on the other hand, it might be something totally different. Do keep on recording everything. The journal WILL help both YOU AND THE DOC.
