If a simple seizure originates in the temporal lobe, quite a wide variety of symptoms can occur. This is because the functions of the temporal lobe are quite varied. As with all types of epilepsy, each person is different and straightforward comparisons are not always possible. Usually, someone having a simple partial seizure originating in the temporal lobe will experience an intense feeling, for example, sudden fear or happiness. They may have an extremely vivid memory flashback or strong sense of déja vu. Unpleasant smells or tastes and an unpleasant sensation in the stomach are also possible symptoms. These symptoms are often called an ‘aura’ and can act as a warning for people with complex partial seizures. During simple partial seizures, the person remains fully conscious and the seizure is usually very brief. Often it is only the intensity and suddenness of these feelings that differentiates between someone having a usual déja vu experience, for example, and someone having a simple partial seizure. The parietal lobe deals with our bodily sensations and simple partial seizures beginning in this part of the brain cause strange physical sensations. A tingling or warmth down one side of the body is typical. Because the parietal lobe is closely associated with the frontal lobe, people sometimes experience movement too. Known as ‘sensory seizures’ the after effect can be a period of numbness which wears off after a while. Because people experiencing simple partial seizures remain conscious, they can find the experience distressing or upsetting. As with all seizures, it is important not to restrain the person, but reassurance that all will soon be well can be very important. They can hear you and respond to you. Stay with the person and remember that they may need a period to fully recover. However, simple partial seizures can affect movement, emotion, sensations, and feelings in unusual and sometimes even frightening ways. Emotions. A sudden feeling of fear or a sense that something terrible is about to happen may be caused by a seizure in the part of the brain that controls those emotions. In rare cases, partial seizures can produce feelings of anger and rage, or even sudden joy and happiness. Simple partial seizures in these areas can produce sensations such as a sense of a breeze on the skin; unusual hissing, buzzing, or ringing sounds; voices that are not really there; unpleasant tastes; strange smells (also usually unpleasant); and, perhaps most upsetting of all, distortions in the way things look. Some people even report having out-of-body experiences during this type of seizure, and time may seem distorted as well. In many ways, our usual, comfortable sense of familiar things and places may be disrupted by a simple partial seizure. Well-known places may suddenly look unfamiliar. On the other hand, new places and events may seem familiar or as if they've happened before, a feeling called déjé vu. Simple partial seizures can also produce sudden, uncontrolled bursts of laughter or crying. i sad, na kraju, jebite se. jer ova bolest ne postoji. a ne postoji jos masa stvari nevezana uz same napadaje. ne. sit gladnom ne vjeruje. ono kaj nisi iskusio, iskljucit ces kao opciju. ko vas jebe. iskreno. |
