Patient's question:
Two and a half years ago, I had epilepsy, during which time I never took medication and it never recurred. I just gave birth to a baby naturally twenty days ago and have moderate anemia postpartum. Last night, I suddenly fainted. When I asked my family, they said there were no convulsive symptoms. Is this related to epilepsy, or is it due to postpartum anemia?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, it is recommended that you visit the neurology department of a Class III-A hospital and have the experts conduct an electroencephalogram and related examinations. Let's see if medication treatment is needed, and determine the appropriate medication based on your breastfeeding situation. Postpartum fatigue, with the disruption of regular sleep and eating habits, requires maintaining as much deep sleep as possible and a balanced diet.This is the advice for the question "What should I do if I had epilepsy two and a half years ago and have been off medication without any episodes?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
