Described as losing all physical control, motor function, he cant speak when it happens, only sounds come out, he said he is aware of everything going on, but can control anything. he did it while sitting next to me in a movie tonight, I didnt notice him do it.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Your son might be having seizures, you have to check for any rolling of the eyes, or froth coming out of the mouth. Also, get a CT scan of the head done as well as his electrolytes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Purnima Sharma
