Common Questions and Answers about Seizure causes more

seizure

Avatar m tn Medicine from asthma inhalers can also change pupil size. Other causes are excess pressure in one eye due to glaucoma, migraine, seizure, brain tumor or abscess, aneurysm, horner’s syndrome, meningitis, bleeding inside the skull by head injury. If you have any of these causes or if there is blurred vision, double vision, photosensitivity, fever and headache, stiff neck or severe eye pain, go to the emergency immediately. Hope this helps answer some of your doubts. Take care.
Avatar f tn Ever since my Neurologist started taking me off my anti seizure meds, I've started getting these brain spasms, I guess you could call them that anyways. They only happen on days I'm not on my meds. For example, last week when I tried not to take my meds for the first time, I had a really bad brain spasm where my entire brain kinda froze, and my body jolted and I dropped everything I was holding. I had many more of those and had to go home from school.
Avatar f tn Partner had a stroke april 21 but only this last 6mths she has had 1/2 episodes where she has gone to laugh and had one i would describe as a seizure - she stares and goes red as though struggling to breath then 10ish secs later she is absolutely fine- anyone else had similar
458594 tn?1206301123 My Boxer had a seizure yesterday and has hind leg weakness...more on the left side. I noticed a change in his behavior the day after I applied Frontline Plus drops on the back of his neck area. This is the only thing different that I can remember we did. He was fine, running, jumping and the next day was more lethargic and the following day had a seizure and was incontinent of his bladder during the seizure. Please give me some insite or what to look for.
Avatar f tn For the second episode, this sounds more seizure-like due to you striking your head repeatedly and the confusion. There are many times of seizure, and not all of them involve losing consciousness. Did you bite your tongue or wet yourself (I realise this would be hard to tell since you were in the shower)? If so, this is strongly associated with epilepsy.
Avatar n tn Many people experience a once off seizure (I think it's something like 1% of the population) Were you doing anything at the time that could have triggered it? The only thing you can do at the moment is wait for the EEG results and that will determine where you will go from here.

Avatar m tn If GABA is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, how does diazepam can cause anti-depress? I heard that it can treat seizure? Seizure is a disease that is over-stimulation, repetitive, uncontrolled neuronal firing in CNS. May I know how does it treat seizure? Thanks.
714398 tn?1229666191 In people who are epileptic or otherwise prone to seizures, this drug usually causes a seizure because its mechanism of action reduces the seizure threshold. Alot of people just have one seizure and never have another, in your case it appears to have been provoked by the drug. I would consult a neurologist.
220028 tn?1301336634 right eye pupil dilated more then left. Also I have been noticed that eye twitches quit often. It is not full blown. It does constrict. But for the last week or so it is noticeably (slightly) bigger and the eye keeps twitching. What could this be?
Avatar n tn Infections and fever can make an otherwise healthy individual more prone to have a seizure. a single episode of seizure cannot be marked as epilepsy. An EEG to ensure that there are no structural abnormalities in brain. Normal EEG and MRI brain are encouraging though this does not rule out a future episode. You need to consult a physician for investigating any underlying infectious condition, high or low blood sugar, injury, electrolyte imbalance, drug withdrawal syndrome etc.
Avatar f tn I would definitely have an EEG done to see about seizure activity. I have had a seizure disorder for the last 26 years. Most of the time mine were absence seizures. Unless people knew what they were looking for, they had no clue that I was having a seizure.
Avatar m tn I don't think people who have a seizure remember the seizure, but he definitely had something. Maybe it's a thyroid problem. He needs to be seen, but an ER is the slowest, most expensive and least efficient way to do it.
Avatar f tn Stress causes seizures and different things I even get stressed out.
328381 tn?1269364102 We recommend, as was the case in your pet, to run bloodwork, to identify any underlying conditions. There are numerous causes of seizure activity including, but not limited to, heart abnormalities, liver diseases, toxins, bacterial or viral infections, internal parasitism, congenital defects, hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), storage diseases, fungal infections, kidney disease, trauma, neoplasia (cancer), etc.
Avatar f tn After the 10 days the swelling went down and he was starting to walk around. The vet gave more antibiotics. That night he wasn't acting any different. I gave him his pill and he had a seizure. He never had one before. He passed away.
Avatar n tn hi i really dnt have a answer to that?
Avatar n tn However, as with all antiepileptic drugs, it should be taken regularly or as prescribed by your doctor, since if it is not, and you forgot and withdrew from the drug abruptly, the potential of increased seizure frequency happens. More information about Trileptal can be found in this link: http://www.mims.com/Page.aspx?menuid=mng&brief=false#Contraindications Sometimes, it is also important to note the special triggers that cause unexpected seizures.
Avatar f tn I have double vision and blurred vision at times, I don't know why. I have epilepsy (absence and grand mal seizures) but this doesn't seem like a absence seizure as I am still aware when it is happening. I can only see clearly when I close one eye... Help and advice please.
1830047 tn?1321667793 I suppose that seizure activity could explain the loss, but I think it's more likely that you're having memory problems from some other source.
401370 tn?1233324682 Electrical discharges occur throughout the brain. The discharges produce a generalized seizure lasting more than 15 minutes or recurring seizures between which the person does not completely regain consciousness. The person has convulsions with intense muscle contractions and cannot breathe adequately. Without rapid treatment, the heart and brain can become overtaxed and permanently damaged, and the person may die. Seizures may have serious consequences.
Avatar n tn Should I be concerned if looking at a bright light causes my vision to "kaleidoscope"? This usually resolves in about 15 minutes.
Avatar m tn I have had 2 brain lesions for over three years. They have not grown the past two, but this years MRI showed growth. I have had a Lumbar Puncture and the only thing we are waiting on are the O-bands and the Total Protein. At this point, everything else it normal. I am frustrated as I had a Nerve Conduction study in 2015 from my knees down that showed I had no feeling from my knee to my foot on both outside legs.
2030686 tn?1351688548 If a med causes you to have a seizure, will you continue to have them for years after discontinuing the med or should they stop after a couple months?
