What Is The Treatment For Seizures?
Hi,
My brother, now 18 was treated with desval for last 5 years. He had never had a big seizure, in childhood we noticed him blanking out for a few seconds and thus started treatment.
last week, for the first time he had a seizure for 5 minutes followed by a brief spell of unconsciousness. His EEG showed normal a year ago, and was now on desval 250.
he says he had missed medicine for 2 days.
But in all these years, we had almost got a control over the problem.
What does this seizure indicate. Is his condition getting worse?
