questions - Epilepsy Message Board

I don't think I have epilepsy, but I do have auras and/or simple partial seizures. I have not lost consciousness to my knowledge, but definitely have the symptoms described as auras or simple partial seizures. Is this a mild form of epilepsy or can these occurrences be caused by something else? I am on wellbutrin xl for depression and I know it can cause seizures, but I have had these symptoms long before I started the wellbutrin. Any advice would be great. Also, if these are in fact seizures, will it eventually get worse or is this all I can expect?

THANKS to any and all with advice for me.

Hi,

It sounds like Epilepsy to me,and yes if you do not
go and see a neurologist to make sure whether it is or
is not E. and it is,and you do not start taking some
type of medicine,it CAN get worse.If I were you,
I would definitely go and see a neurologist.
Good-luck and Take care,Sherri
