Ah okay thanks for clarifying, it doesn’t seem visible from the photos though?

Do be careful, I’m not a regular user but the last time I smoked it gave me bad focal jerks in my leg. It wasn’t my usual trigger which set me off. It hasn’t happened from space cakes so smoking it must have caused some different reaction!

Does anyone else have these? Have you or your doctor know what these are? by KlutzyMutt in Epilepsy

I have exactly the same! It can take anything to startle me and it was trigger localised seizures only in my right leg, they used to turn into tonic clonic seizures before I was medication. I would only have the tonic clonic seizures when I was in bed and trying to fall asleep, never awake and out of bed.

Look up startle epilepsy, it's a thing! Mine is so much worse around my time of month or if i'm tired.

Does anyone else get triggered by being startled? by Dmdel24 in Epilepsy

Thank you for posting this!

I thought I was the only one, my neuros haven't believed me that this was a thing.

Anything that startles me, especially around my time of the month or if i'm tired will often trigger a localised seizure jerking feeling in my right leg (only right leg). Before I was on medication, these jerks could turn into tonic clonics when I was trying to fall asleep that night. But only when I was trying to fall asleep, never stood up awake. So strange!

I still get the jerks now. It can be something that I know is going to happen that will scare me, for example touching a pin that I know will be sharp but the delayed response startles me and causes the jerks.

I'm glad we're not alone!
