Patient's question:
My child is 9 years old. Since starting Tegretol on 2006-5-9, he now sweats very little and has slightly elevated body temperature. How should this be handled?Past diagnosis and treatment history and effectiveness: epilepsy
Doctor's answer:
According to the issue you mentioned above, it is more likely caused by medication. You need to closely monitor whether the child has any abnormal changes. Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease caused by various factors, characterized by excessive discharge of brain neurons leading to recurrent, paroxysmal, and transient dysfunction of the central nervous system. Epilepsy can occur in people of any age, region, and race, but it is more common in children and adolescents.
