Tingling and other Sensation to seizure?

[Tillikumtrainer]

Okay Lately I've noticed that I have a certain tingling sensation before i suddenly feel the numbing and then the seizure begins. This is the recent problem i am dealing with I havent had this before, but i spoke wth my doctor about it. Does anyone else have this or other feelings before they start having a seizure??

I get that feeling throughout the whole seizure. It's strongest in the crown of my head & radiates out in waves,

That sounds like an aura - a simple partial seizure preceeding a larger seizure. Part of Neurobehavioral Therapy is recognizing your auras and performing specific tasks/exercises to "short circuit" further seizure activity. Epilepsy - A New Approach: What medicine can do, what you can do for yourself is a good book on the subject.

I actually get tingling prior to and also during...for me I will get weird feeling, headachy and tingling in my head and sometimes even all over in the afternoon or early evening (Just feel kindg of bad) and then I will have a bad siezure at night. If I get it during the night with the siezure I may feel tingly and quite often my arms feel num all over and hard to move. I hate the feeling!! My seizure are weird nocturnal ones. The Drs. tell me that can happen with the seizures...
