What is the difference between epilepsy and parkinson's?

Night and day: Epilepsy involves paroxysmal and repetitive episodes of loss of consciousness or alteration of awareness, interspersed by relatively normal functioning. Parkinson's disease occurs in older individuals, and is a progressive degenerative process, marked by tremors, gait imbalance, and stiffness, perhaps also cognitive issues. Treatment differs radically.

Parkinson's disease: Epilepsy is repetitive sudden change in behavior sometimes associated with convulsions, loss of consciousness, and confusion due to abnormal electrical discharge of the brain. Parkinson's disease is a movement disorder due to deficiency of a neurotransmitter in the brain called dopamine. Is characterized by tremors, rigidity, slowing of the movements, balance difficulties.
