Patient's question:
My daughter is 2 years old. On June 30, 2014, at 9 a.m., she had a seizure in her limbs for about a minute, her eyes looked to the left, and then she lost consciousness. During the attack, she had low fever, was not in good spirits, but was still eating. Later, she was sent to the children's hospital. Around 4 p.m. that afternoon, she had another attack. The doctor administered mannitol and anti-inflammatory drugs, suspecting epilepsy, and said that if she had another attack, she would need to take epilepsy medication. She had an electroencephalogram for 3 hours, and CT and echocardiogram results were normal. She was discharged on July 5.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on your description, it is considered to be a seizure related to epilepsy. It is recommended that the patient promptly visit a formal hospital's epilepsy department for a 24-hour EEG examination to further identify the cause. Treatment should be symptomatic and specific based on different causes. Avoid blindly using medication to prevent delaying the recovery of the condition.
