Question

My sister just recently started having seizures, she is 34 ...


Sent to Health Experts May 16, 2006 6:36 p.m.

My sister just recently started having seizures, she is 34 years old. She knows when it is going to happen because she gets a tingly sensation. Her head starts jerking to the side and then her hand, arms and legs start twisting. She has had an MRI and an EEG and both are normal. There is no seizure history in our family. The seizures started at night, she would wake up and have one. Now they are anytime and several a day. She feels tingly afterwards and has a lot of muscle pain. Do you have any idea what could be causing her seizures?

Optional Information:
Female

Already Tried:
have been seeing a nuerologist for months. On seizure medication that makes her sleep
