My daughter was diagnosed with abson seizures today due to an abnormal EEG. She is to start levetiracetam with a follow-up EEG in 1 month. Do these seizures diminish with age? Can they progress into more severe seizures? She shows no abnormalities other than 3 episodes of passing out which were thought to be syncopal events until the abnormal EEG.
diagnosis of absence seizure is clinical history notabnormal EEG.absence sizure does not diminish with age defintly as seizure can occur at any age. progression cannot be predicted but absence seizure is not life threatning. if you are taking levetiracetam than continue it and tell me the response of drug
