Hi hissleepy,

What you are describing sounds like a possible simple partial sz. also known as a aura sz. This happens to me often I will get a nervous feeling in my stomach and then a few seconds later I will start to blank out having an absence sz. or a complex partial sz. I've had sz. for 41 yrs. and the best thing for you to do is to see a neuro or Epileptologist and get some tests done like an e.e.g. or MRI to find out if anything else is going on. Start keeping track on a calendar and write down each time you may be possibly be having a sz. and write down the description of the sz. by doing this the neuro or Epileptologist you see may see a pattern in the possible sz. I found that lack of sleep and stress are the 2 main things that can trigger sz. for a person as well as hormones changing. Try taking vitamin B12 1000 mcg. once a day and see if that helps you. I know it helps me a lot because the vitamin B12 helps calm my nerves. I wish you the best of luck and May God Bless You!
