What do you advise if i still have little jerks after a seizure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well....: From your question, I assume you have a primary generalized epilepsy syndrome with myoclonic and other seizure types. After a larger seizure often folks have a flurry of myoclonic jerks afterwards.
