What is a microseizure?

Answer 1

I have been using this term to define what look like brief, involuntary muscle contractions in my old Brittany spaniel. His is prone to the occasional full blown seizure and is on phenobarb to control those. But every once in a while his body will convulse suddenly, like he's getting jolted with a small amount of electricity. It only lasts for a second or two. I don't know if "microseizure" is the right term, I've simply co-opted it because it seems to fit logically with what I'm seeing.
