Does this happen to anyone else?

I love posting to see if what happens to me does happen to anybody else.
I am still being investigated but they do believe I have seizures.
I have a 24hr sleep dep. EEG on Tuesday and another MRI in June.

Maybe other people feel the way I do and wonder...are they missing something? Especially when I've been on my meds for about a month and they've upped my Keppra to 2000mg daily. My seizures are still not controlled. I have about 5-8 daily. Just partials mind you.

Sometimes I have a pain in the middle of my left arm prior to seizing and sometimes my chest hurts after a seizure and sometimes when I'm going to bed I have palpitations. They've worked up my heart though. I know that seizures can start with autonomic symptoms when they start from deep within your brain.

Sometimes I feel like my throat is closing up and that the seizures radiate from the top of my throat. Thyroid issues? They've done bloodwork though.

Ah well. Thanks for reading this. I've turned into a hypochondriac I think!
Maybe I'm just scared too.

Yes i have palpitations as well and sometimes chest and arm pain. Once my whole left side of my body went numb. I've had thyroid and heart tests as well nothing has shown up.

horsehead...you and I have some crazy similarities. I get a right sided facial grimace, slurring and then left sided weakness before my head slumps, vision blurs, eyes flutter and then some muscle tensing and twitching mainly on my left side but sometimes all over. I could go on. But it's so frustrating when it seems like no one can help!

Actually my left side is now always less sinsative than my right side. i almost always get twiches on my left side. Wow we do have alot of the same issues.
