When someone experiences more than one seizure that can’t be attributed to another cause (such as low blood sugar or alcohol withdrawal), doctors may diagnose epilepsy. While seizures are the common thread linking people with epilepsy to one another, the type and frequency of seizures that they experience can be vastly different. Consider taking the following poll to share how often you experience seizures.
MyEpilepsyTeam is the social network for people with epilepsy and their loved ones. On MyEpilepsyTeam, more than 97,000 members come together to ask questions, give advice, and share their stories with others who understand life with epilepsy.
