Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Dehydration

Hello doctors, I recently had a seizure last Friday. I got extremely dizzy and then the next thing I remember, I was in the ambulance. The night before I had about 6 drinks and only received 3.5 hours of sleep. Other than that I had extreme food poisoning Sunday till Tuesday. Can these be reasons a seizure can happen? I had another seizure 6 years ago but I was extremely dehydrated. Thank you.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this was the reoccurrence of seizure then it need to be investigated and MRI and EEG is advisable to rule out the possibility of late onset of Grand mal seizure if the tests turned negative then it is nothing to worry and then you need to cut down the alcohol, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
