Many, many times Vapour. I can tell usually when it is going to be a bad day as well. You get that gut deep inside you can't really explain. It intuition but I know it is is part of the aura process. BTW, thanks for your post to my thread. I really appreciate your imput. You I really like hearing from you or in this case reading from you.

Hello Vapour,
I just knew from waking up one morning in bed, that I had just had a seizure. I felt very sick, giddy and just didn’t feel right (bad head, couldn’t think straight). I was quite sick and my Mom had to phone for an ambulance. My blood pressure was very, very low. I knew it wasn’t a tummy bug because I have had them before and after being observed in hospital for 4 hours I was back home eating loads. If it was a tummy bug I wouldn’t have felt like eating anything. I did have a tonic clonic-seizure the day before this one. I also knew when I had one in hospital. I didn’t feel right when I woke up and all I remember was a nurse trying to give me oxygen, doctors being around me and I had wet myself (blush, blush).
I hope all the above makes sense. There are occasions which aren’t so obvious during the night where I think I may have had a mini seizure though wont find out anymore until I have the week EEG scan in January 2010.
I hope you've had a good day.
Kind Regards
Debbie

Hey, just wanted to let you know.. today went great.

I did not have any seizures....like I thought i was going to because of that weird feeling.

I did however notice swollen lymph nodes in my groin... probably becuase I have an infection that is clearing up...

I am not too worried yet... I have 2 permanent swollen ones in hte left side of my neck.. I discovered months ago and had checked out (blood work all came back negative and they have never grown or anything.. just squishy and move)

The ones in my groin are sore.....

NO seizures is good.. Im doing fine again for a couple of weeks now (I think) but im pretty certain when I start my menstural cycle I will have some...

off to write another post.

How strange you ask that. I just wrote in my seizure journal to ask my neurologist about that exact thing.
Sometimes I wake up to a seizure- or I wake up and just feel extra sleepy or slow moving. I try to do the things I normally do in the morning but it all feels weird. As if you can feel your brain slowing down.
I don't know if its an aura or prodrone or nothing at all. I'm going to ask about it next visit.
