A member asked:
Can a 13mm cerebellar tonsillar ectopia cause a seizure in an adult?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO! This has nothing to do with epilepsy. If you had a seizure, see a neurologist, and get evaluated and treated. Do NOT drive, do activities at heights, use power equipment, or swim and/or take a bath alone.
