I want to know if the child really has epilepsy?

Patient's question:

Patient is male, 4 weeks old. He started experiencing eye blackness in the winter of the previous year. Initially, it was just his face turning to the right, but he could still understand everything. Later, it occurred intermittently a few times, and then his face returned to normal, no longer twisting to one side, but he lost his vision, felt discomfort in his stomach, heard his stomach rumbling, and had acid in his mouth. Last year, he was seen at the Third Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. He was born weighing 2.3 kilograms and had low blood sugar. This year, he had two episodes: one in the summer and one two days ago. Both episodes lasted a short time, and after sleeping, he felt better.

With scientific and systematic medical treatment, 97% of epilepsy patients can be completely cured. Patients need to pay special attention to the choice of treatment methods. Oral medication and minimally invasive surgery are treatment methods. The recurrence rate after surgery is very low. Medications such as carbamazepine tablets, phenytoin tablets, and Dingxian pills.
