Brief Answer:
Seizure disorder

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

I am sorry to hear that you are having episodes of convulsion followed by confusion. This could be related to a new seizure disorder. This is concerning and needs to be addressed by your medical provider. You will need additional testing including blood work, imaging with CT scans and MRIs and a brain scan or EEG. Please have this done quickly as you should not allow for convulsions to go on without knowing their cause.

I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
