Hi everyone, I'm new here. This site is great and seems really supportive. I need some help with my newly diagnosed EP please.
I was diagnosed with simple partials a week ago. I basically had 2 1/2 days of non stop seizures whilst in hospital. My face droops and the facial spasms I experienced were really really intense! Some of these lasted a few minutes, some half an hour. I was exhausted! I must have had at least a hundred of these. I've just started on Lamictal. What I want to ask is. A month ago I experienced a full body spasm. I was conscious throughout. Both my arms stiffened and extended out, my mouth grimaced and I felt a really intense 'whoosh' of tingling go down both of my legs which were fidgeting at the same time. This lasted a few minutes and was the most horrible thing I've experienced. Again, I was in hospital at the time. The Docs put this down to a panic attack?! Yeah right..I wasn't stressed beforehand. Was this a type of seizure also?
Thanks
