5. Unusual Senses
As alluded to earlier, sometimes it can be very hard to know if you or someone you know is having a seizure. That’s because the symptoms can sometimes be quite mild and even abstract.
An example of this is a change in the way the senses work. For example, you might find that the world suddenly looks a slightly different color! Likewise, you might become overwhelmed by a certain smell. It’s also possible to feel as though you are moving a limb, or as though the pressure is on it when it isn’t. Even something as seemingly innocuous as pins and needles can actually be a sign that this is happening.
More common is flashing lights. You might be familiar with having flashing lights if you have ever had bad migraines – and yes the two conditions are connected. So be careful out there!
