I have never had a seizure in my life, or fainting spells,or anxiety attacks. I just turned 29 when it started. It began with strange warm butterfly like sensations in my stomach. Then progresses into an almost numb feeling all over my body. It's like all the energy just fades away and i can't move, my legs are like jelly. I start to feel almost like going to sleep but don't lose consciousness fully. I can see & hear, but that's it. My heart begins to race, breathing becomes slightly rapid/shallow. I can't control what is happening or stop it. Sometimes my arms will twitch and shake, even raise up in the air a little. My leg may go stiff or begin twitching as well. Lasts a few minutes maybe. Once it's over i usually feel pretty exhausted, I couldn't just get up. This lasted 6 months on and off. Sometimes 4-6 times a day. Then stopped suddenly. Neurologist hasn't helped me, 3 EEGs and can't find anything. Any ideas or suggestions. Thank You!
I hate to have to be the one to tell you, but you have all the classic symptoms of Gran Mal seizures. I have the illness myself and it wont go away, it must be treated by a specialast. With meds.
Thanks for the response, I have felt that i need a second opinion! It's a hard one to swallow but i will take your info and try to see another neurologist!
