Epilepsy

Nah, he's having what I call a "flap attack". Caged pet birds don't always get as much exercise for their wings as they would in the wild. They have the instinct, and the energy gets pent up and they have to flap to get it out of their system. Both my cockatiel and my lovebird do this on a daily basis, sometimes more than once a day. It's quite hilarious.

The immediate complication of epilepsy is simply the risk of getting a seizure :-)

It is common for victims to lash out at their tormentors. Everyone has a breaking point. Whether violence is involved depends on the character and personality of the victim.

Normal BGL ( Blood glucose levels) -

Normal fasting lBGL- 3 - 6.9mmol/L

Normal random BGL- 3 - 11mmol/L

(Fasting is when the patient has their BGL tested when they havent eaten for a while, and random can be any time, so a while after a meal, just after a meal...)

Abnormal if equal or above 7mmol/L when fasting or 11.1mmol/L at random

Yes. It is one of the oldest drugs used in the treatment of epilepsy. Because of known side effects, it is not as widely used now and there are many modern alternatives.

The classic example would be an automobile or other accident indirectly caused by someone having an epileptic seizure, losing control of the vehicle, and the situation getting out of control. Police, etc investigating the case would find out the victim had a history of epilepsy- possibly a warning bracelet or something on an ID card- and jump to conclusions, the actual cause of death might be impact injuries from the accident but Epilepsy could be ruled a proximate cause.

In effect those thing are what are happening during a seizure. The excessive electrical activity is causing those changes and sensations. During a seizure a person is not conscious of what is going on around them, and may be dreaming or experiencing other sensations. Once a seizure stops though, people will return to normal. So it wouldn't be necessarily true to say that it affects moods.

My research has found no links between topanax and a positive ANA.

You have to hold the patient tightly, as he may be having a convulstion, and then inject him with a sedative injection

Epilepsy can cause brain damage that could contribute to mental illness. But this depends on the severity of the illness and how much damage occurs. With the right medicine, becoming crazy is HIGHLY UNLIKELY. I have had epilepsy since I was 6 years old and I am completely normal.

Yes. Anyone can have seizures in their life. They could have one and never have one again. For someone to have epilepsy, they have to have recurring seizures.

A question like that can only be answered by a doctor who could examine your grandmother and get more details about her case.

SUDEP is an acronym for Sudden Unexpected Death in EPilepsy. It is defined as "sudden unexpected, witnessed or unwitnessed, non-traumatic and non-drowning death in an individual with epilepsy, with or without evidence of a seizure and excluding documented status epilepticus where post-mortem examination does not reveal a cause for death".

An absence seizure or a petit mal.

Most people with epilepsy are not affected by flickering light at all. It is just one of many causes, and different people with epilepsy have different causes for their seizures. Those that are affected by light have what is known as photosensitive epilepsy. For those that do have that, what triggers a seizure is also different for everyone. In some people a slow flickering can cause it, in others it takes a higher amount. You will also get people who can be triggered by a slow flickering or a fast flickering, but not by ranges between their particular trigger levels, so they could be fine with medium levels. For some with photosensitive epilepsy, it doesn't even have to be flashing light that causes their seizures, but patterns of light, like sunlight through leaves or railings that are changing as they walk past. Others can even be affected by still patterns like stripes or squares in a picture. So there is no specific answer to your question as it is different for everyone.

That kind of question can only be answered by a doctor who has seen the scan and is familiar with other aspects of the person's health.

After an epileptic episode it usually takes 20 to 30 minutes for them to wake. although the seizure is usually less than a minute all patients go through a stage called postictal which means being loopy and/or sleeping and is basically out of it after the episode.

Epilepsy affects 1-2% of the population of the United States. epilepsy is as common in adults over 60 as in children under 10. One in every two cases develops before the age of 25. About 125,000 new cases of epilepsy are diagnosed each year.

If someone gets some damage to their brain, this can result in someone getting epilepsy. So if someone had a aneurysm in their brain and some damage was done, it is possible that epilepsy could develop epilepsy, but it is not certain that it would happen.

That could depend on the circumstances. If you had not told them you have it and this had an impact on your employment, then they may well be within their rights to fire you. If they fire you just for having epilepsy and it has no impact on your work, then they may be open to charges of discriminating against you and you could have a case of unfair dismissal.

There are no "carriers" of epilepsy. It is not an infection or a contagious disease. You cannot catch epilepsy from someone. It can however be genetic, but only in rare cases, There are many forms and many causes of epilepsy. It is not really a single condition. Epilepsy is a word that covers all of them. It is defined as the tendency to have recurring seizures. Many different things can cause seizures. You could have seizures as a result of a head injury for example. Other people would get their seizures for completely different reasons.

Vertigo is an inner ear condition that affects your equilibrium, in turn causing nausea, dizziness and sometimes vomiting. Symptoms are worse with movement, and especially going from a flat to sitting or upright position. Another common symptom is "feeling like the room is spinning. Epilepsy is a neurolgical disorder that can cause seizures.

There can be several causes, but I would encourage another trip to the pediatrician... Of concern would be the potential for a thyroid issue (Alopecia) which can cause sudden hair loss among other things. Any chance your young one is pulling their hair out in their sleep? I have a niece with trichotillomania and stress can make this worse. It sounds as though your young one has a lot of that! Time for you to ask some additional questions.. Also, some medications may interfere with your child's ability to absorb nutrients, which may also be causing this issue. I wish you well...

no, i tried echinacea for my duaghter. echinacea leads to triger her epilepsy.
