What are the early symptoms of epilepsy?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have a few questions. What are the early symptoms of epilepsy? There are no other symptoms, just a bit of incoherence, and sometimes I feel occasional twitching at night. I don't know if this is epilepsy. Please help me take a look.

Doctor's answer:

Early symptoms of epilepsy in patients may include frequent episodes of absence. If they are emotionally agitated or overworked, it may lead to the recurrence of symptoms such as jaw clenching and foaming at the mouth. The symptoms usually recover quickly, but if this occurs again, it is necessary to perform a thorough examination of the head CT and EEG to confirm whether it is epilepsy. If it is confirmed that it is not epilepsy, it is necessary to use anti-epileptic drugs as soon as possible to prevent the condition from worsening.
