Hi davessports,

Welcome to the forum! What you are describing sounds like a simple partial sz. or maybe an absence (petit mal) sz. I've had this form of sz. for 40 yrs. When I have a simple partial sz. I am totally conscious and I will continue to talk to others and work but I sometimes can't speak and that's because the neurons in the brain are affecting the left side of my brain where a persons speech is. Start keeping track of any possible sz. write them down on a calendar stating what time they happened with a description and you may see a pattern in your sz. as to what time of day/night the sz. happens and you will also see certain days of the month when you have any sz.
My Epileptologist told me the moment I start to feel a simple partial sz. to tighten up all the muscles in my body and make my hands into tight fists for a few seconds by doing this it can stop the sz. if you catch it in time. I've done this many times and stopped the sz.
Cut back on carbs and starch foods, stay away from anything with nutra sweet in it and if you use a cell phone take note if you have any sz. when using the cell phone or if others around you are using cell phones. The frequency for cell phones can sometimes trigger sz. for some people if they are cell phone sensitive and they have proven they shrink and harden a persons hippocampus where it effects short term memory and education.
I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You!
