I had my first seizure last Spring. EEG confirmed seizure activity. My Neurontin was increased and I was put on Keppra. I've had seizures since then and the Keppra has been increased.

My daughter has Epilepsy and both my maternal grandmother and paternal grandfather had seizures.

My neuro feels the seizures are MS related however I also have a family history of seizures so it's really impossible to say "why" I have them.

I have had jerks following a seizure. For example, after a seizure, my head jerked from center to right for several hours. The jerks were explained to me like after shocks that follow an earthquake (like Sandy said).

Even tho I have a lot of experience with seizures (my daughter has had them since birth) they can still be very scary.

Hope you feel better soon and don't experience anymore seizures!
