Hi ~ I have TLE with complex partials that started when I was 46 years old.
Well, they started several/many months before that but no one, even a doctor, would believe me.
Nov. 1, 1990, I went to sound to sleep and quickly had a massive tonic clonic ... I was diagnosed with epilepsy.

After that I continued having the CPs - a nice warning aura maybe 30 seconds before probably saved ...... long story But I did amost always have a memory of what happened during the event.

I took all the meds and almost all combos of the meds - the CP seizures continued. The only change was I lost my precious aura and went unconcious during the seizures.

July 2005 finally it was learned that a small grade 2 oliogodendroglioma tumor in my left temporal lobe was what had started this for me ... Feb 2006 it was removed.
May 2007 seizures returned so I had more surgery and I have not had another sz since then.
