What happens if someone has trouble talking, is it epilepsy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: Most folks with repetitive seizures, experience episodes of altered consciousness and blunted responsivity. Difficulty expressing speech may be due to a prior stroke, but also dysfnctn involving mouth and/or tongue.
