Not an emergency : When a person has a known seizure disorder it is not at all uncommon for the individual to have a seizure for reasons like a missed dose of medication , lack of sleep, stress, sex, even having good things happen that are exciting . Best for your boyfriend is to let his doctor know he had two seizures, check his medication levels, possibly adjust his dose and discuss any other factors.
