    A seizure is an outward sign of a malfunction in the electrical system that controls the brain. The seizure may be a convulsion, a brief stare, muscle spasms, odd sensations, automatic behavior or altered consciousness.

    When someone who has had a seizure seeks medical help, the Doctor wants to know:
  • Was the seizure caused by a short term problem like a fever or infection that can be corrected.
  • Was It caused by a continuing problem in the way the brain's electrical system works.
  • Is there anything about the structure of the brain that could cause seizures.
  • Was the seizure an isolated event or does in mean the person has epilepsy.

    The Doctor will try to find the answers to those questions through:
  • A detailed medical history.
  • A thorough physical examination, especially the nervous system.
  • Analysis of blood and other body fluids.
  • ElectroencephalographiC (EEG)
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI0 and.or computed tomography (CT) scans.

    Which test and how many of them are ordered may vay depending on the needs of each individual case. The results of the test help the doctor find out what caused the seizure so appropriate treatment can be prescirbed.
