Does epilepsy causes seizures?
Epilepsy is defined as the tendency of having recurring seizures. Seizures don't "turn into" epilepsy. Epilepsy is a broad ranging term that covers a range of things, but generally relating to the fact that someone has recurring seizures. If someone is having recurring seizures, then they should got to see a doctor and try to find out what is the cause of them, and get a formal diagnosis of their problem.
Do seizures cause reading disability?
Not directly. If someone has Epilepsy it maybe as a result of some damage to the brain. If they have some damage to the brain, that may impair their ability to learn. In that situation, their epilepsy is just another symptom of the same thing that is causing their learning difficulties. Not everyone that has learning difficulties has epilepsy. Most people with epilepsy are well capable of learning and it has no impact on their capacity to learn. If their epilepsy causes them to miss out on regular education, which would only be with someone who has severe epilepsy, that will obviously affect their learning.

What if your Chinchilla is shaking and not responding He is 11 years old and you think he may be dying?
My chinchilla frequently had epilepsy crisis when he got older (around 10-11 as well). You can ask a vet and see what he thinks about it, but I heard it can be common for old chinchillas. If it is epilepsy, then the vet can give you some antibiothiques that you ll give him everyday so he doesnt have any crisis anymore.
