Epilepsy

Epilepsy is a serious neurological condition that many people are diagnosed with. Epilepsy can be defined as a series of seizure that are caused because of unknown reasons(that is, not being the cause of alcohol, or extremely low blood pressure) according to Epilepsy.com .

The seizure might be related to brain injury or it might be hereditary. Some of you might ask, "well what exactly is a seizure". The answer is simple. A seizure is a "surge of electrical activity in the brain that usually affects how a person feels or acts for a short time."

What makes seizures dangerous, is that they can happen at any time, and at any place without warning and there is no way of subduing the seizure.

At epilepsy.com there is a great indicator of pre-seizure, actual seizure, and post-seizure symptoms that one might find useful when trying to find out if they themselves had a seizure. You can find the list HERE. For more information you can visit their website at Epilspy.com.
