Focal Seizures
Focal seizures are another form of seizures. They occur when the atypical electrical activity starts on one area of the brain. Subtypes of focal seizures that may affect adults with no history include:
– Focal impaired awareness seizures: It may lead to a loss of consciousness.
– Focal aware seizures: During an attack, you do not experience a complete loss of consciousness.
– Focal to bilateral awareness seizures: This form begins in one region of the brain and then spreads to the other part. At the beginning, you would be still aware, but lose consciousness later. [3]
