A member asked:

How to tell if i am at risk of a seizure during the operation?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nominally: I suppose there are certain rare situations which could lead to seizure activity, but it's not something that is of much concern. Ask your surgeon if your specific procedure would cause any concerns for such a problem. Good luck.
