A member asked:
Are you pretty safe not having a gran mal seizure if not knowing why you had one in the first and being 14 years free on one after only having one?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: If you had one grand mal seizure (technically tonic-clonic seizure) and no more and no neurologic deficits and normal eeg, the chances are extremely good you won't have another.
