My husband has them-he had a gran mal. You whole body goes into convulsions, and you cannot control them. It can last from a few seconds to a minute or more. If you are ever alone, and think you might be having a seizure, or about to, you lay on your side. Not your back! You do not want to choke if you are alone. If you are able afterwards, you must call 911 to go to the hospital for evaluation why you had it.
