A member asked:
After sudden 1st seizure, is it possible to get another seizure after your eeg and brain scan come back clean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it is possible: A person who has epilepsy or recurrent seizures can have a normal inter-ictal (between seizures) EEG. Prolonged EEG monitoring or sleep deprived EEG may provide more information.
