Re: [epilepsy] Re: Movie

 

Hi Tammy,

I wondered about that also. When I had grand mal seizures I didn't remember anything during that time. I had status epilepticus and I remembered hearing people talking in between seizures. I remember hearing the ambulance siren. I don't remember anything else. When you have a grand mal you are unconscious, so it is not possible to feel or know what it is like to experience a seizure while it is happening.

Megan remembers absolutely nothing for a short period before, all during and some period after a tonic clonic. One is unconscious during a tonic clonic, so how can anyone relate what it's like for the person? I can certainly understand that people who have partial seizures could describe what they experience, but ......
