A seizure is the physical findings or changes in behavior that occur after an episode of abnormal electrical activity in the brain. The term seizure is often used interchangeably with convulsion.. Convulsions occur when a person's body shakes rapidly and uncontrollably. During convulsions, the person's muscles contract and relax repeatedly. There are many different types of seizures.
Focal seizures take place when abnormal electrical brain function happens in one or more areas of one side of the brain. Focal seizures may also be called partial seizures. With focal seizures, particularly with complex focal seizures, a person may experience an aura, or warning, before the seizure happens. The most common aura involves feelings, such as deja vu, impending doom, fear, or a feeling of great happiness or well-being.
