POTS and Seizures: Anyone Else?

I call them adrenaline surges and they can look very similar to pain attacks but it is essentially your autonomic system freaking out. I also get dystonia (random twitches) which sound like what you are describing. Clonidine helped immensly

I've seen some ppl say it's just body jerking. There is a difference when it's affecting your speech, consciousness/memory/awareness, cognitive functioning, and limiting movement. There are lots of different seizures. If you have a level of consciousness, it's "partial." I have POTS and seizures. I'm still in the diagnostic process for the seizures but am on medications for it. I've only had a few "simple partial" seizures where it was really scary with seizing. Everything else has been "complex partial" seizures where it looks like I'm "spacing out" but I'm stuck in a seizure. It can make you internally panic during one for sure. I have panic disorder, can go catatonic, chronic dissociation, and regular fainting, so it took me a long time to discover the differences between the sensations and symptoms and criteria. It's good to follow new leads because no matter what the result, you'll be learning about yourself. If you find out they're seizures, it can still be very hard to find the cause of seizures. They can be linked to epileptic and so many nonepileptic conditions like diabetes. I've seen dysautonomia can be a cause. Some people will just have a couple seizures in their lifetime for seemingly no reason. For anything concerning me physically, I'll accept psychogenic/psychosomatic causes but only after the other possibilities are ruled out. Depending on the situation, it can be dangerous to jump to that conclusion. Lemme know if you have any questions about it or what my seizures feel like <3

Syncope can cause body jerking and I get that too

I have it, and mine does have seizures,but actual term for it is jerks, it's like mini seizures

I get this too!! Im always conscious, just unable to speak or move much or at all. I shake and twitch quite a bit and I often have a panic attack along with it. It certainly looks like a seizure when its happening but I never fully lost consciousness.

I have POTS as well as non-epileptic psychogenic seizures. My seizures are brought on by stress and anxiety and will start out feeling like a panic attack. After that my entire body starts seizing and shaking. Afterwards I'm generally very tired and out of it.

if you can remember what happens during an episode, it's not a seizure, and it's definitely not a seizure related to POTS. if you have an anxiety disorder and the episodes usually come on during a POTS attack, you probably have functional neurological disorder, or FND. it used to be called conversion disorder
