When a person has a seizure, especially one known as a tonic clonic seizure, one's body can undergo some pretty violent and strenous activity. You are correct, those symptoms are consistent with a radicular neck pain (ie bulging disk). It is very possible that while you were suffering a seizure that you could have injured your neck or shoulder. You should see your PCP about the symptoms as well as a diagnostic work up.
