A member asked:
I had anaphylaxis from a whooping cough vaccine as a child in the 1950's. could this have caused my seizures from the time i was 10 until now? i am 61

Not bad explanation: You may have a good explanation for brain injury associated with the anaphylactic reaction, and subsequent seizures, although other causes may be additive, such as prior head injuries.
