Hey I was wondering if anyone knew what this might be.

Sometimes Ill get maybe 5 or 6 of them in a row within perhaps 15 minutes..

Its very hard to explain but its like a rush of a very pleasent feeling go through my body. Its almost like the tingling I get on my skin (except that one is unpleasent)

It makes me get goosebumps...and hair stands up....it is a pleasent feeling...it rushes through me.uhh... not sure how else to describe it.

Was wondering if it is seizure related...an aura.. or a seizure... and if it is a seizure would it be simple partial or complex partial ?
 
It sounds pretty similiar to what I experience at times (and I have both simple and complex partials). However, when I get that feeling - I don't find it pleasant at all. That said, I am definitely leaning more towards an aura or seizure.

*hugs*

well an aura is actually a seizure in itself and it is a simple partial. its basically a "starting point" and you'll only notice it if it starts some place that notifies your body that its out of whack. Like seeing things, hearing things, tasting or smelling things or feeling things. All of which are non existent external sources. I read once that all people have auras. But the change the aura makes is not detected until the larger seizure starts.

IE: you may not notice your tummy grumble as this is a normal occurance, whether you are hungry or not, but this could be your aura.
 
Im really not feeling well AT ALL i just got to work...and this afternoon when people havbe been talking or like said "hey there" it feels like its coming from me.. out of the wrong ear... hard to explain.. but I hear it stemming from me out hte wqrong ear

I have been feeling very much like Im going to black out

I am seeing Neuro in a week. I am concerned.. i feel very very weird right now and I am at work.
 
I get those, they are kinda stimulating, like tingles under the skin??
It could be an Aura, I just let them pass.

I get hte tingles under the skin regulary.. but this is different.

Its almost like yo uknow when your cold and you get a shiver ? Its not that im really cold or going to shiver htough.. grrr so hard to explain...wish I could explain better.. but its different than the tingles under the skin.. i hate that....this is just like a feeling that goes through me and it feels pleasent...

Yes that's it!!!

I get the shivers like that, I check my temp a thousand times, once it was 95.8, scared me. I wonder why that feeling happens?

Is it an Aura, but I have always had this feeling.

Rae, I have at least 3 or 4 Auras a day, I see them sometimes as what I call a "slow seizure" as I get these slow moving flashes of lights, feelings of just "unexplainable" or Unthinkable, so Auras are seizures?
Also I stare and zap out of it finally. hmmm :ponder:
