Are Headaches And Sleepiness After A Seizure A Cause For Concern?

My 20yr old daughter had a seizure for the first time about 5days ago. She is now complaining about a headache in the center of her head and says it last for about 5minutes and she is very sleepy all the time now. Is this normal or could it be signs of something more serious?

Post ictal symptoms usually resolve in a day or two. You need to get her examined by a Neurologist and get investigated. MRI brain and EEG needs to be done.
