Does nocturnal epilepsy without convulsions in children mean the condition has improved?

Patient's question:

My son has had epilepsy for a year. If a child with epilepsy has a recurrence at night without having a seizure, does it mean the condition is improving?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the current situation you have described, you mentioned that the patient has had epilepsy again for a year, and currently there is no recurrence of nighttime twitching. This does not necessarily mean that the epilepsy has improved, mainly because it is considered to be due to medication controlling the symptoms, and there is currently some relief. It is still necessary to have irregular and careful observation, and it is recommended to have timely treatment. It is advised to pay attention to rest and ensure deep sleep during daily life. Wish you good health.
