There is no simple answer to that. It is not a standard operation that is the same for everyone. The surgery for each individual can be different, so for some it is a bigger thing to get over. Then there are other factors, like the relative health of the person, which may impact on how well able they are to recover.

Epival is used to treat certain types of seizures in the treatment of epilepsy. It also relieves facial nerve pain. It is also used to treat certain psychiatric disorders, drug and alcohol withdrawal, restless leg syndrome, and a disease in children called chorea.

Epilepsy is a neurological condition. The neurons fire the wrong way and cause lack of sleep, muscle twitching, zoning "petite mal", or full body shakes "grand mal". Epileptic patients often feel alone and unaccepted due to their condition. It is not that they themselves are alone, it is their psychological inability to accept this fact that they are and in this fight they loose what it is that makes them fully functional. Basically the subconscious wraps the mind in a state of a "child like behavior" in order to preserve its utilities and reject the unacceptable fact that the brain is in fact malfunctioning, just as a stroke patient would if they were to find that they in fact had a stroke.

Alcohol decreases a person's inhibitions and slows down thought processes as well as the processing of incoming visual and auditory information. Alcohol also slows down the heart rate and rate of breath revealing stress for those epileptic patients who can tell that they are soon going to have a seizure. These notable events before a seizure are often referred to as an "aura" or petite mal, which may lead to larger event such as a grand mal . Though alcohol is not highly recommended by doctors due to its side effects eg. organ, brain damage, seizure are often know to cause strokes and are just as potentially lethal.

If the seizures are brought on by crowds, large events, sunlight, flashing lights, fluctuating sound/light frequencies, yelling, arguing, and the epileptic patient knows their triggers, it is highly recommended with doctor approval, that the patient go into hospital in order to localize these triggers, then by themselves if they are capable or if they are willing to go with someone, or with someone that will not trigger these stresses that they get away from them if only for a short while at a time.

With a willing patient, due to the lack of stress as a trigger for the consumption for alcohol, these methods should help to rapidly detox the pacient Remember that alcohol is a physical as well as a mental dependance and that brief detox can cause seizures or even death.

There is no way of knowing. Most epilepsy is idiopathic, meaning there is no known cause. It can be from something environmental or it can be congenital (hereditary). No animal should be bred that has any health issues, you are only perpetuating the problem by passing along the genes to the offspring. You will only cause heartache for the people who buy the puppies if this health issue is passed down. Your female should be spayed.

my daughter had a seizure this week and when she was on a monitor her heart rate dropped from 140 to 70. with this said if the heart rate drops you have decreased blood profusion through the body which can cause lips, fingers and toes to turn blue. this is what happened to her. It was freaky. Her oxygen level did not drop.

There are many drug interactions of various types between some birth control methods and some medications used in the treatment of epilepsy. Contact your pharmacist for information on potential interactions in your proposed treatment plan.

It would be extremely difficult to do so. Epilepsy can start at any age. Unless there is some sort of family history there are not many reasons to suspect a baby will have epilepsy. It is possible, should a woman have some complications during a pregnancy like some infections, that something could happen to the baby which would result in epilepsy. However this is very rare and even then the onset of the epilepsy would be after they were born, maybe even later in childhood. If you have any concerns talk to a doctor.

Hunger doesn't cause epilepsy. Someone who has epilepsy may get a seizure if they don't look after themselves well. So it is important that they do things to keep themselves generally healthy like get enough sleep and eat well. Some people who have epilepsy might be more likely to get one if they are not well in other ways, or if they are very weak, so eating well is obviously important.

An aura. However, not everyone will get one. Also, getting an aura doesn't always mean a seizure will follow. Sometimes the aura is as far as it goes.

When you have a seizure, your brain is malfunctioning so you are not conscious of what is going on. It is like the fact that you do not remember being asleep. You can remember dreams when you sleep and you may remember having a dream when you have a seizure. Whether you do or not, you will usually know that you have had a seizure, in the same way that you will usually know that you have been asleep.

Many people with Epilepsy get married and live quite well. It is not always that a person get bouts of this disease. The affected person and most of his close relatives know when it would occur and what to do then. An epileptic getting married and living in a family is better than him living alone.

Epilepsy has many causes and there are many reasons why people get seizures. Gender does not particularly have any influence on who gets epilepsy, when they have seizures, what age they may start to have seizures or how fast a seizure happens.

LSD can affect anyone, so yes it would affect people with epilepsy. How it affects them would depend on all sorts of factors, like how much they take and the type and severity of epilepsy they have and any other conditions they may have.

There are many causes of epilepsy. It will depend on what the father's cause is. It can be hereditary, but more often than not it isn't. So it is something that cannot be answered here. Only a doctor that knows about a particular individual's case could answer the question, and even then they could not always be certain.

I believe that would be 'epilepsy'.

It is an unusual level of electrical activity in the brain. There is constant electrical activity in the brain. If it is disrupted or an extra amount of it happens it may affect the working of the brain temporarily and the result is a seizure.

Marstubation most certainly does not result to epilepsy. Masturbation, however, may result in epilepsy. Give it a try.

Flashing lights and strobe lights affect people who have a form of epilepsy known as photosensitive epilepsy. Most people with epilepsy do not have that form, so there is no problem in them watching fireworks. Even those that have photosensitive epilepsy might not have much problem, as it is usually close and intense flashing that can cause their seizures, and not watching something like fireworks at a distance.

Random/confused brain signals that force involuntary muscle movements.

It is also known as 'Spasticity'.

Dilantin , Tegretol and phenobarbital are three of the original drugs used. today drugs like depakote, topomax and Keppra are used frequently and have been more effective than Dilantin. There are side effects from topomax that can cause anxiety attacks and perspiring to occur. Depakote has been proven to cause significant weight gain in many users. Keppra has not caused any significant side effects I'm aware of. Some of these drugs are also used for psychiatric purposes. Depakote also caused a patient to be lethargic.

An epileptic seizure is the transient occurrence of signs or symptoms due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain, leading to a disturbance of consciousness, behavior, emotion, motor function or sensation. Epilepsy is not a single diagnosis but is a symptom with many underlying causes.
