- Focal seizures, such as those due to frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), are not always easy to recognize and may be erroneously attributed to peripheral or psychiatric sources.
- FLE seizures may present as abnormal body posturing, sensorimotor tics, and/or other abnormal motor skills, and rarely may be associated with uncontrollable laughing and/or crying.
- Post-seizure confusion >may occur, but typically does not last as long as the post-ictal states associated with other types of epilepsy.
