migraine an PNES
Does anyone have non epileptic seizures? I have been diagnosed with PNES and vestibular migraines. I also have absence seizures. Ive had mri's ct scans, and eeg's. Everything is normal. I have olfactory hallucinations as well. This episode of smelling burnt exhaust fumes has lasted for a week now. I have other type smells too..all burnt. I dont understand the difference between a migraine aura and a seizure aura. I have so many of the same symptoms of each and I am so confused as to what my true disorder is.
I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with these symptoms, it's unsettling and challenging for sure. Because I know it can be so helpful to hear from other's firsthand experience, I'm sharing with you this article that has a great discussion of fellow community members sharing their experiences that you might find really helpful and relatable. I hope it helps!
