What type of aura do you have? I have olfactory auras. If an aura doesn’t progress to another type of seizure, the aura is a seizure. You may want to check out the following web site.

Thanks for the link. If my EEG results in an epilepsy diagnosis I will check it out.
My cognitive function freezes and I can’t remember my train of thought and I stop speaking in the middle of a sentence. My hands and arms freeze in whatever position they are in when it begins. My eyes seem to jump to a new focus point and I am disoriented as to why I am suddenly looking there.
When the “actual” seizure or migraine starts (not sure which yet) I get this squeezing sensation that moves over my brain and becomes intense between my eye making me want to squint with my eyes shut tight. At this point I cannot speak or can only slur my words. I can only move a little bit and can’t get up.
I do have a history of several episodes of “scintillating scotoma”-type aura without the headache, mercifully.
