    You ask like it was something normal and at least 50% of people would have seizures... lol
    I saw it once in my life on a party ,the girl who have that and her friends were stupid cause she's epilepsy and she was drinking like crazy and her friends didn't say a word about that. It looked pretty scary when first she was losing consciousness ,we took her out of the building,then she came back in and fell on the floor and started to shake. Even stupider were people who sent back the emergency who came because someone called them.Just because this girl was 16 . And even better were her friends who even didn't drive her home,just put her into the taxi and came back to have a party and call her dumb.
    I prefer to have no friends than friends like them.
    I wazzzz here

    My brother used to get seizures when he was a kid until the doctors figured out that eating cold foods triggers them for some reason.

    As far as I know, I don't have seizure...

    My daughter gets seizures, 2 types: absence and myoclonic. Both fall under the umbrella term "grand mal". She is uncontrolled at this time.

    what medication are you taking?

    She was on Depakote, which was very good at controlling her seizures, but gave her some additional health issues.

    Now she is on Keppra and Lamicatal, and we in the middle of titrating her dose.
