While I was at work yesterday, I had what seemed to be a tonic seizure. It began as auras and a few tremors, then all of a sudden, it felt like a ton of bricks hit my chest and stomach. Phantom smells and loss of breath followed shortly thereafter. I started to seize a little bit, and drifted in and out of consciousness. I was responsive most of the time, but for a few seconds I wasn't.
The odd thing was that about two minutes later, although I did have a pounding migrane, I was responsive and answered questions (such as date of birth, and place of employment) while in the ambulance, albeit slowly. One of the emergency responders told me once I got to the ER that I really wasn't in a postictal state, and that my pupils were perl.
Has anyone had a very short postictal state as described above?
