A member asked:
Do comatose patients feel pain while having seizures? been comatose two weeks!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Who knows?: The comatose patient never has memory for events, but unlikely that the seizures would cause pain. However, the two week duration of problems and seizures due create concern, and this seems ununsual. Would have anticipated better seizure control by now.. Advise a meeting with your entire hospital treatment team, and get explanation of what is occurring.
