The daughter was playing well, but suddenly said she had a headache. She is 6 years old this year.

Patient's question:

The day before yesterday, she played with two friends. In the middle of playing, she said her head was dizzy, and later her grandmother hugged her. It was just for a little while, and then she played by herself again. She has epilepsy and has been taking medication for four years with no improvement. Today, I asked her how many times she got dizzy, and she said it was just once. What should I do now?

Doctor's answer:

In this case, you can rest and wait to see. It's unlikely to be a seizure. During a seizure, most people lose consciousness and cannot describe their symptoms on their own. It could be due to intense activity or transient cerebral ischemia.
