Patient's question:
My husband was carefully diagnosed with epilepsy by the hospital, and I'm worried that my child might also suffer from it. I want to know if epilepsy can be inherited across generations?Doctor's answer:
Your husband has been thoroughly examined by the hospital and diagnosed with epilepsy. This situation requires a specific and detailed examination to determine the cause of the epilepsy. Since he is now in his mid-40s, he should have secondary epilepsy. Secondary epilepsy is generally not hereditary, so there is no need for you to worry excessively. The main thing is to support your husband, cooperate with the doctor, and actively pursue medication treatment.
