Howdy!

There are all sorts of indicators that a seizure is somewhere down the pike. Some of them can be quite bizarre! It's probably not medically correct, but I call 'em "long range auras." Mine usually have something to do with my equilibrium. I can be standing (or sitting) someplace and then, in a flash, almost fall flat on my face (or some other extremity!)

Whenever that happens, I can usually say with a fair amount of certainty that I'm going to have a few complex partial seizures within the next 18 hours or so.

Yours may be a blessing in disguise. If you ever do something REALLY stupid, all you have to do is tell people that you had a seizure the next day.
