Hi all! Possible Complex Partial Seizure...should I get a second opinion?
I was diagnosed a few years ago...with syncope. Basically saying I have a tendency to pass out for no reason!? I knew they were wrong. I have what I call my deja vu episodes. I've had these since I was a young adult. They usually last a few seconds to a few minutes. I get a feeling of deja vu...also confused...forget how to complete the tasks at hand...and to try to get myself out of it, I usually fidget or rub my fingers...or tap my leg, etc. I have completely lost consciousness...passing out at work, especially when I was pregnant which was the first time I ever saw a Dr about this...that's when he said it was syncope. The time before that, I was pregnant (same child) and passed out in the bathroom and busted my chin open on the floor. I have passed out other times as well, but have more episodes without passing out.
I have had them while driving as well. I pull over and wait it out. It actually usually drains me for quite a while afterwards recently. There are no warning signs except the deja vu. I thought I was psychic when I was younger lmbo!!! I'm sick of not knowing what might happen to me or my family. I'm a single momma of two kiddos..my son is 15 and has seen me during these episodes. I just let him know to be prepared to call grandma...or 911.
Do you guys think these could be seizures? Or is it syncope?
