Brain Zaps

by Carey01, May 14, 2008 06:52AM
Has anyone experienced "brain zaps" --- I have experienced this sensation several times in the past few months.  I have been describing it as brain spasms but when I goodle brain zaps it appears a lot of people have them.  Seems to coincide with coming off SSRI's which I have never taken.  I am having an EEG on Thurs because I am worried it may have been a mild seizure -- now im not sure.  Does anyone know about these things>

I have been having what I think can be described as that.  Kinda like a wave of sensation that goes through your head?  It happens really fast.. without any real pain, just kinda funny feeling.  I notice them when I am trying to fall asleep mostly.  Is that what you had?  Did you find out what they are?
