Can Seizure Activity Cause Loss Of Bladder Control?

Yes, seizure activity can cause loss of bladder control
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for your question.
I am sorry for the symptoms she is facing and I am glad that she is getting further evaluation.
Seizure activity can cause loss of bladder control. If she is having absence seizures, this can make learning difficult as she will just be "absent" for portions of the teaching. This is very difficult and hard to under stand for young children. The abnormal EEG definitely is concerning for some type of seizure activity.
The good news is that seizures are often treatable. With treatment her seizure activity could resolve and her frustration and behavior problems may resolve as well. The best you can do at this point is be as supportive of her as possible and make sure that she get an adequate evaluation (sounds like you are doing this already).
Good luck to you and I hope she gets a diagnosis and treatment very soon.
