Yes. They differ considerably for different people. For me, I get pins & needles down the right side of my face and a sudden aversion to feeling hot.
Excess fatigue is the biggest trigger for me.

I was admitted to the Royal Free last summer when I collapsed - turns out that wasn't a fit but some type of food poisoning, but the nature of the collapse made people initially think it was a fit.
I haven't had a full on Grand Mal tonic clonic for several years. Thankfully.

That's certainly more dangerous, I'm allowed to drive as things are under control & I get auras, I wouldn't want to be a passenger with your colleague.

tonight I'm doing beef olives sous vide served with hundreds and thousands, deep fried and dressed on a bed of lettuce in a chocolate and mustard sauce.
Deep fried and washed down with two cans of Monster.

I get those symptoms when I've got a migraine brewing.
Fatigue is the cause for me usually I think.

Thankfully seizures, as I understand it, are a lot shorter than migraines.
