Patient's question:
My girlfriend has always been very healthy. I have been in contact with her for several years. A few days ago, my whole body suddenly seized. I was very difficult, so I sent her back to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor told me that she suffers from reflex epilepsy. What are the symptoms of reflex epilepsy?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder in clinical diagnosis. Its clinical diagnostic definition is a chronic illness caused by abnormal discharges of brain neurons, which can lead to transient brain dysfunction. Epilepsy can cause physical harm to patients. When patients have epilepsy, their whole body muscles will contract rhythmically, and they may bite their tongues. If epilepsy occurs continuously, a patient's life will be threatened. In early-stage patients, activity may suddenly stop, with eyes staring forward, a trance-like state, and a lack of facial expression, which can last from several minutes to several hours.
