I'm so afraid of getting epilepsy that i'm getting anxiety, please help?

Epilepsy: This requires discussion with your nd. There are reasons for your fears which you don't stare- maybe a close friend or relative has it. It can be sometimes inheritable, but post traumatic seizures are not. It's not likely to ovccur without predisposing risk factors.
