Epilepsy

Epilepsy is a neurologic disorder, causing abnormalities in the brain activities, unusual behaviour for time intervals, seizures, sensations and losing awareness/ consciousness. A person of any gender or ethnicity can develop epilepsy at any age. Lack of oxygen during birth, head abnormalities, brain tumours, genetic conditions are some of the underlying causes associated with epilepsy. An early treatment plan can help most people with epilepsy to have fewer seizures or stop them through medication or surgery to remove a small part of the brain responsible for causing seizures.

Symtoms:

  • Confusion
  • Staring episodes
  • Involuntary jerking and twitching of arms and legs
  • Deja vu, anxiety and fear
