A member asked:
I would like to know can epilepsy cause body temperature from hot to cold?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Temperature: Temperature typically rises with a seizure secondary to muscle contraction. A temperature can drop though after the seizure. Cold therapy is used to treat status epilepticus. There are focal seizures that could effect the thermal center of the brain and theoretically could decrease temperature, but I am unaware of this being described.
