Yes: Back to back seizures are to be addressed promptly in the epilepsy unit. Please proceed to the closest hospital or call an ambulance for transportation.

Take to ER: She does not typically have 2 seizures within an hour so this is an acute neurological change. You need to take her to the ER to make sure there is nothing else wrong. Please take her ASAP!! Let us know what the results are. Best of luck to you!!
