Epilepsy Complex Febrile Fits. Issues With Equilibrium, Spinning, Buzzing And Dizziness. Suggest?

epilepsy Complex febrile fits .... i can be in the middle of anything and i will suddenly get a horrible smell and burning in the bridge of my nose then seconds later my head starts spinning really fast,I know i must sit or lay down fast or fall over or buckle to the floor. My head feels full of deep gray of and noses, like seeing and hearing through a off the air TV station in my head. i feel like I m just in my head. i cant think right, even though i am conscious, my awareness is impaired and i have saver pain and buzzing, dizzines and spinning in my head and am not really aware of people around me or whats happening, it usually lasts for at least 10 to 20 mins. after the episode I m exhausted and so very tired and lightheaded and i cant walk for a while as my legs give way when i try to put any weight on them. I collapse in a heap, and feel like i could sleep forever, like a life time. i remember what has happened, but details of the event are confusing. i also can get the spinning in my head and the smell/burning in my nose a few times a day just on there own for about 2-10 seconds then nothing happens? I don t fill well for a week or more after this happens Ok my ?? is I had a spell 10 days ago a bad one.

Your symptoms could suggest possibility of complex partial seizure. The second set of symptoms may be related to medicine side effects. Sorry, i donot know your medications. Please at;east see a general physician nearby and get examined. They will help you and let you know if it is medicine side effects or somke thing else.
Please get back to me in case of any further query in this regard
