I do have complex and simple partial sz. They've just never presented this way before. I do now remember my vision had started to get weird and I remember my speech being off, but for some reason I didn't put that together and realize I was going into a sz. My friend gave me my 1 emergency med but I don't think it worked, ive gotten used to the med and it didnt bring me out of my complex partial because she said she couldn't get me to move off the sofa and she said I would stand and sit back down repetitively , she kept talking to me thinking I could understand trying to get me to bed but I wouldn't move besides doing that, but I don't remember any of it. And its whenever somebody touches me is when I get mean.
My seizures were much worse over the summer! I was having them all the time, I think that's why ive gone 2 months without one because we are now into fall.
Its driving me insane I haven't seen a neuro since Feb. because ive been waiting months to get in to see a new dr. Clearly more testing needs to be done then just 2 eegs in the last 7yrs.

Often when this happens to me I will start to see colors in my eyes or I will try to be talking and all of the sudden the words won't come out, my Dr. has told me this is a simple partial (aura) sz. and then it leads into a complex partial sz. where I sometimes wander around or just sit there and do nothing but I don't realize what has happened then when the sz. is over I am very confused and exhausted. During the simple partial sz. I am conscious but when I go into the complex partial sz. I blank out. It's like having 2 different sz. at the same time the simple partial sz. leads into the complex partial sz.
Since I began having complex partial sz. I would be very moody and have a hot temper. This has happened because both sides of my temporal lobe along with my frontal lobe are firing up triggering this type of sz. and it's the frontal lobe that controls a persons behavior.
Take note if you are having more sz. in the fall and winter compared to the spring and summer. If you notice this start sitting around bright lights more because they have found that sometimes a person will have more sz. at certain times of the yr. because they are getting to much or to little serotonin. I have found I have more sz. in the fall and winter so I sit around bright lights and that helps but during the spring and summer I have a lot less sz. because there's more serotonin out there. Here's wishing you the best of luck and May God Bless You!
