- About Epilepsy Over 3 million people are living with seizures and epilepsy in the U.S, and about 200,000 new cases are diagnosed annually in the US. While many people with epilepsy gain partial or complete control of their seizures, others still continue to have frequent seizures despite taking anti- epileptic medication. You should always talk to your doctor about any questions regarding epilepsy and seizures. Partial Seizures Most people with epilepsy have partial-onset seizures, which usually last for less than 2 minutes and end on their own. They are caused by unusual electrical activity in one part of the brain. Partial seizures can affect the way you move, what you feel, how alert you are, whether you can communicate with other people, and what you hear, see, or smell. They can be different for each person. There are two types of partial seizures: Simple partial seizures in which you are conscious (able to respond and remember). Complex partial seizures in which you may lose consciousness or may not be fully aware of what is happening around you during the seizure. This may include some memory loss after the seizure. Different types of Seizures Primary Generalized Seizures Absence seizures Atypical absence seizures Myoclonic seizures Atonic seizures Tonic seizures Clonic seizures Tonic-clonic seizures Partial Seizures Simple partial seizures Complex partial seizures Secondarily generalized seizures
