Is it common for each seizure to feel different? Sometimes I experience a burning smell, sometimes a weird flashing pattern, sometimes sharp head pain, dejavu and anxiety happens every time but it feels like each time I have one I'm noticing something different. I have at least 3 per week.

Tonight's symptoms were flashing light patterns, dejavu, memory loss and confusion. The memory loss was new.

Does anybody else have emergency meds they take when they are either having auras or an aware seizures?

This is a new one for me, 30m, was diagnosed with epilepsy in 2017.

It starts with a headache out of nowhere, then I get a sudden feeling of pure dread, I get confused, at some point I smell this burnt metal smell, I find it hard to focus or speak, I have difficulty swallowing and breathing and I shake like I'm sitting outside in the middle of winter with no clothes on (I was sitting in bed playing Zelda). I'm aware of what's happening and when I can I talk to my wife to explain. The episodes seem to last 15 mins or so and it seems to happen in waves.

My wife, 28f, her current medications: escitalopram, Metformin and jardiance, accidentally took my keppra 1000mg. Is this dangerous?

My wife, 28F, takes medication which looks pretty much identical to my 1000mg keppra tablets. Is this likely to cause any harm?

Neurologists first thought is "oh you have anxiety? they're panic attacks, go talk to your psychiatrists". My psychiatrists first reaction is "oh these sound like focal seizures". Anyone else have a similar experience?

I was diagnosed with epilepsy along with PNES in 2017, seizure free since 2023, just recently started experiencing these new episodes of nausea, dread/doom and disorientation. I'm strongly considering talking to an epilepsy specialist but they're so damn expensive.
