How many seizures do you have per day, per week, per month, or per year? Whichever applies to you.
 
I've had about 2-3 tonic-clonics per year I guess, on average?

looking over my diary I enter quite a few things a week on average
it's hard to tell unless it's a tonic clonic

On average I have 4 seizures a month, usually one a week. Some worse than others.

I might have one gm once a year, but it's very rare for me to have them.
 
I'm about the same as Valeriedl, 4 seizures a month, 3 out of 4 are generally simple partials, with a complex partial about once a month. 2 Grand Mals in 2010 could have been faints (unconscious with convulsions) according to the first Neuro but the hospital staff who witnessed it classified them as tonic clonics so i'm not sure.
 
I had 1 TC every 4 months for about a year and a half, then went for a year without a seizure after starting topamax. Now I am having seizures again, not tc's though, maybe complex partials, 1 a month, and simple partials (quite a bit).
