It may manifest as sensory, motor, consciousness, mental, behavioral, autonomic dysfunction or both.
Most epilepsies have no signs and symptoms, such as simple partial epilepsy, which is sudden and abrupt. However, in complex partial epilepsy, there may be aura symptoms, which are part of the epileptic seizure before the loss of consciousness, and are most commonly characterized by abnormal sensations in the upper abdomen, as well as emotional (fear), cognitive (déjà vu), and sensory (olfactory hallucinations) symptoms.
