Can severe anxiety attack cause a seizure ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many things possible: Many things are possible in this life. If a person asks, "Can something happen...," the answer is almost always YES, because many things are possible, even if it might not happen but once in a billion times. So, the useful question is how likely is something to happen under what circumstances. Details like what exactly a person means by "anxiety attack," and her past medical history are important.
