What causes fits?
A fit or seizure is a misfire of the electrical impulses of the
brain, which causes the body to convulse (fit) uncontrollably, and
usually fall unconscious. This is most common in epileptics, which
is a blanket term used to describe the condition where seizures
occur as a result of a neurological disorder.
Fits can ofcourse be caused by means other than that of
epilepsy, however, such as in an allergic reaction, or sometimes in
anaphylaxis. A diabetic fit will also have many of the symptoms of
an epileptic, however they will seem, to all external appearences,
drunk. They will be sweating, not walking straight, their speech
will be slurred, their eyes will roll back in their head and they
will collapse. They will generally also suffer haliosis.
If you, or someone you know is fitting often and you don't know
why, see a doctor as soon as possible.
Hope this helps :D
