I was 10yrs old when I had my first seizure(grand mal). I stayed home sick. I don't remember how I was feeling exactly since it was so long ago. Believe I was on medication for a year or so then got off. Then when I was 17yrs old I was in Reno in a hotel room with my younger brother and it was like maybe 2am. Dont remember the exact time but it was really late and I was kind of tired. All the sudden I felt really weird and felt car sick and all the sudden I was passed out and had another grand mal seizure which then was diagosed with epilepsy since I now had more than 1 seizure. I was wondering if anyone that has epilepsy ever felt car sick before having a seizure? And if you've had any other symptoms before having a seizure. I was then put back on medication after having that 2nd seizure and was on it for like a year and stopped taking it. Then when I was 19yrs old I had one in the movie theatre. I was watching jar head and ive heard that flashing lights can trigger seizures but im not quite sure. But I remember having to go to the bathroom but tried to hold it out until the end of the movie and I never had any symptoms that I remember before having this 3rd seizure which was grand mal again during the movie.
