Hi Tristin --
That is a very good question! Most times there is no aura, or at least he doesn't remember it. When he does have an aura, he describes it as just a weird change in what's around him. He says things look different. When he was a pre-teen, he would see a flashing, floating sideways figure eight in front of his eyes. (!)

> Hello Michelle,
>                  You mentioned that Aaron has partial seizures. What are his auras like? What does he discribe them as? Just curious. I have partial seizures too. Mine always start as a nauseating rising epigastric sensation. It kind of feels like I'm falling; just a really strange feeling in my gut.Â

> Thanks for the welcome! I would love for Aaron to participate in something like this! Not sure he'll go for it, but we'll see. Has anyone tried "alternative" therapies? I guess that would include herbs/supplements etc. So hard to know what to do at this point. Aaron starts community college next month so we had hoped to be on the way to a little more seizure control before then. He had the battery switched in his vns in July, but even that hasn't done much. I don't think I mentioned before, he has partial seizures. Thanks again!
