Hi all,
I have simple partial seizures many times a day, every day. Mine are of the sensory type, feeling as if a mild shock is traveling through one arm to my fingers. If it is particularly strong, I also have an anxious feeling in my abdomen which sometimes travels to my chest where it becomes a tightness. But for the medication I take, I would have complex partial seizures which generalize. The medications have controlled the complex partials but not the simple partials. Although it isn't perfectly clear where the seizure focus is, it is probably in the parietal lobe, sensory strip.
Does anyone else have similar simple partials or other types of simple partials that happen multiple times every single day? Has anyone ever been diagnosed with "aura continua?"
I would really like to hear from anyone with similar experiences.
Thanks!
