Let me just clear up what's going on with me health wise.
I had an operation a few weeks ago to remove my appendix which when fairly well, I am still bleeding in one incision.
I take 200mg Sertraline for clinical depression (Have been for years) and I take 100mg Tramadol every 4 hours.

Today, I had a really weird feeling. I felt very hot then cold, and cold sweaty. I went upstairs because I just had a feeling something was going to happen (I was alone) and went to my bed.

Then something weird happened that has never happened before, I felt from my toes a pressure sting thing building up, it slowly worked its way up to my body and I thought my head was going to explode when it got there. Anyway, I had this weird de javu feeling. Like my world was brighter and clearer. In high definition. I felt like my dresser opposite my bed wasn't right. I thought that one side was heavier than the other. It was really weird how I saw the world.

I couldn't speak or put my attention to anything and when I came around I had drooled everywhere and my body stings. After about 15 minutes I just felt normal but tired...

Tramadol and Sertaline shouldn't typically be mixed but I've been ok with it. But is this a small seizure?

I am on a lot of medication (psych stuff) and most of it is pretty heavy. I have had seizures from missing medications and once from taking an over-the-counter pill that should never be combined with what I take. It sounds like you could have had a petit mal. I am no doctor so I certainly can't diagnose things like this over a forum but it sounds like something like that went on. The way you say you couldn't speak or pay attention to anything after the sensation matches very well to when I have had seizures. It sounds like this is coming from the mix of two medications so I would talk to a doctor about it. You don't want this to happen again! Rest assured that you are very lucky you didn't hit your head on anything falling down or something. You should be okay, just talk to a doctor please!
