What Causes Recurrent Seizures?

I have a friend I am often worried about she also doesn t tell us the truth about things. We are family friends and have been by her side for 20 plus years. My question is a person that has seizures would they know it s about to happen. She has told us here comes one and grabs a pillow and lays in the floor and starts to shake then stops and starts saying what happen did I have a seizure. Again we love her and want to help here.. I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS ONE QUESTION

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.

Detailed evaluation including an MRI scan and EEG is required to make a diagnosis.

Long-term antiepileptics may be required to prevent further seizure attacks.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain,
