Best Answer

Someone who is paralysed could also happen to have epilepsy and if they did, then they could have seizures. Seizures come in many forms, not just the stereotypical idea of people shaking. A seizure is caused by an increased amount of electrical activity in the brain. The fact that someone is incapable of moving by themselves will not have any effect on whether there can be a disruption of electrical activity in their brain. So paralysed people can have seizures
