the past two days i havent slept very good and last night i barely got any sleep at all ( i kept waking up during the night for no reason). i also had a HUGE mood swing last night and this morning aswell.. i burst out in tears yesterday for no perticular reason i just felt so upset and then today i was just mad at everyone and i just wanted to be left alone.. later on i started feeling very tired and i got this strong feeling of deja vu followed right after that by an aura but nothing happend.. an hour later i was at my granmothers house and i was really sleepy so l layed down on the sofa and i fell asleep i woke up i think from my aura ( my aura is feeling really terrified) and it lasted about 15 seconds (kinda longer than usual) then it stopped still nothing happend i fell back to sleep and i woke up about five minutes later and my left hand fingers were kinda twitching i tried to open my mouth to call out to my mom who was sitting on the other side of the room but i couldnt. the next thing i know my left leg gives a very strong jerk then my whole body is just jerking and jerking i fell of the sofa onto the tiles ( i fell flat on my face but thank GOD i didnt feel anything!) my legs and arms kept jerking and my head aswell i was just rolling all over the room.. i know it sounds like a grand mal but i was conscious the whole time! i dont get it i mean i couldnt FEEL anything even when i fell on my face or when i kept bumping everything i didnt feel nothing but i couldnt stop what was happening either.. i must have lost conscious for a few seconds right b4 i hit the floor i dont remember actually FALLING but i still remember everything else.. my mom said this was exactly the same as when i woke up from my surgery but then i had LOST complete concsiousness.. here i didnt.. could this be another type of partial seizure? or is it in the progress of changing ? or is it grand mal? i'm really confused and scared

this is my second time having this kinda seizures but the first time in the hopistal i have a few like this but i was unconscious then but this time i was mostly conscious.. i couldnt feel nothing but and i couldnt respond or really control what happend to me but i could still see thats just the strangest thing.. i'm going to try to see the neuro sometime this next week and see what he says.. take care!

I think there is a huge number of epilepsy types. my neuro explained my seizure to me. first the start of aura has its own name, then the next sttemp has another name, etc. I hope you get some good info from your neuro and this helped too.

take care everyone..
