A member asked:
Might epilepsy go away and come back later?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Epilepsy: It's possible to have a seizure and not be diagnosed with epilepsy, such as after head trauma. Some childhood/adolescent epilepsies may decrease in frequency over time but typically they do not go away unless there has been an intervention, such as surgery.
