Has Anyone Before Their Seizures Fell From Standing Up To The Ground And Went Into A Seizure?

Last week I was walking back to my chair and collapsed and went into two seizures back to back. I ended up with a concussion.

Yes, it's possible to experience an atonic or drop seizure that causes you to suddenly fall to the ground. This type of seizure makes the muscles go limp, which can result in collapsing or dropping objects. I'm sorry to hear about your recent fall and seizures. It's good you're getting checked out for a concussion. Please Show Full Answer

It's good you're getting checked out for a concussion. Please talk to your doctor about any recent changes in your seizures, as they may want to adjust your treatment plan.
