Hello Emily,

Well I'm no expert but I have heard of this type of seizure.  I say that because I have a friend who, like me, had right temporal lobe seizures.  Her parents said that since she was a little girl, just in elementery school, they could tell one to three days before her seizures due to lights, plain impatience etc.that one was coming.  Long about the third day she became very agressive.  

I know you say you've done research which is great.  Have you seen a neurologist? You probably should see a epileptologist.  That is a neurologist who specializes in epilepsy/seizures.  My Neurologist is a professor at University of Cincinnati and his specialty is seizures.  So, where are you located?  I do know of patients who have come from as far away as North Carolina to have the surgery.  It's done at Duke University and probably others as well.  That's not to say that you need surgery.  It's just interesting.  Anyway, sorry so long and find a very very good neurologist who really cares.  If you feeel that he isn't as interested as you'd like, fire him.  It's sometimes not easy to get them to listen.  Push!

thanks barb, for your inquiry.  I've been having behavior problems when certain noises which i feel as if my brain is irritated on the right side of my head.  I get to screaming at who ever is making the noise and this is causing such difficulty that i am trying to find out is i could possibly have a partial epiletic seizure.  I have done further research about noise and found there have been studies done that connect noise and aggresive behavior, and there is a great unknown out there.  ever heard of anything like this?
