OverviewThe brain's temporal lobes, which are crucial for short-term memory and process emotions, are the source of temporal lobe seizures. These functions may be connected to certain symptoms of a temporal lobe seizure, such as strange emotions like exhilaration, deja vu, or dread. Even during a seizure involving the temporal lobe, consciousness may persist. In more severe seizures, you may appear awake but not responding. You might make repetitive, meaningless gestures with your lips and hands. The reason of temporal lobe seizures is frequently unclear, but it could be caused by a scar or anatomical defect in the temporal lobe. Medicine is used to treat seizures caused by the temporal lobe. Surgery might be an option for some people whose condition doesn't improve with medicine. Symptoms A temporal lobe seizure may be preceded by an atypical feeling (aura), which serves as a warning. Not everyone with auras remembers them, and not everyone with temporal lobe seizures experiences auras. In actuality, the aura is just a straightforward partial or focal seizure that doesn't affect consciousness. Aura examples include: An unexpected feeling of unwarranted fear A sensation of déjà vu, or the idea that something has happened before Full Product DetailsAuthor: Dr Kate PPublisher: Independently Published Imprint: Independently Published Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 0.20cm , Length: 22.90cm Weight: 0.064kg ISBN: 9798883365408Pages: 36 Publication Date: 20 July 2024 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print ![]() This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
