Hi I'm Donna and my son Derrick has seizures.

And he had hallucinations at one point. The things you describe can
also be complex partial seizures. Which means that he is alert, but
not there. He is not exactly with you.

My son has CP seizures, and they present in many forms. One form
will even have him having a complete conversation with someone, and
say 10 minutes later not knowing he had it. Or at times knowing the
person was in the restaurant with him. And that he already talked
to them.


Another one he has will make him walk like a drunk, slur his words and
then pass out. He will need to sleep after most of his. He is off most
of the rest of the day after a seizure, but its not always easy for
someone that doesn't know him to realize this.

Also with CP seizures its not always possible to see seizures on the
EEG or the abnormal activity. So one of my suggestions would be
to see if there is anyway you can get him to a ER to be seen during
or after one of his episodes. It might help or it might not. There
is no way of knowing till you try.

Also some are now saying you can draw blood and tell someone had
a seizure this I am not sure of.

Please private message me if you need anything else.

Epilepsy foundation of america has a lot more information too. So please check out there website also.

It will explain the different kinds of seizures.

And even though you can't get in till August that technically is good in
lots of areas, it takes 6 months or longer to get into a neurologist.

Donna
