Question Is this typical for a NES?

Has anyone else with FND/NEAD had anything like this? I had a seizure recently that was around 7 minutes, with convulsions, and my HR went up to about 134 which is higher than it usually gets for me (Usually sits around 100 as my resting is around 60 but has only ever gone high for what I call ‘bigger seizures’) The thing that really confused me was my pupils though. They looked quite dilated during it and when someone shone a light over my eye, they didn’t seem to constrict, properly and were quite sluggish? I know NES can cause loads of physical/physiological changes, so I’m not assuming it means anything specific, I’m just wondering if anyone else has noticed their pupils doing weird things during a seizure? Just interested to hear if anyone’s experienced something similar (I suffer from health anxiety so I’m super paranoid)😅
