The symptoms after a seizure is called "post ictal"= mening the state after a seizure. Most patients after a grand mal seizure (convulsions) are confused. They might stare in the space, they might talk and communicate but they are not aware of what they are doing. They must not be allowed to drive or operate machinery and they must avoid heights to avoid fall and injury. If the convulsions were strong, they might experience muscle pains and headaches.
At this post-ictal state, most patients might already have boitten tongue or might be incontinent of urine. In sum, it is a state of confusion.
