[epilepsy] **Help Me Understand**

 

Hi everyone!

My name is Libby. My aunt is the one who wrote in asking questions about me. I first want to thank you for helping her and the invites to join.
I was diagnosed with complex partial epilepsy and have petit mal seizures. I was hit on the head in the swimming pool at the age of 12. I was contolled right away with topamax for 13 years. I started having seizures again after my 2nd child was born (I did not come of med.s while pregnant). I have seen a neurologist and now a epileptologist. In the last 6-7 years I have been on almost all of the med.s available. I went in for a right temporal lobectomy 2yrs ago with no improvement.
I do have auras. They seem to be a feeling of being scared? I am realizing I may be having a panic or anxiety attack??? I am currently on Lamictal.
I am curious to what others feel when they have an aura?
Thank You again for the chance to join a support group like this.

Libby
