Having after effects of a seizure days later, is it normal?
Mon, 01/19/2015 - 18:44Sorry, for the blank post earlier, extremely new to seizures and the website. My daughter had two tonic clonic seizures one on Thursday night and one Friday as well as many absence seizures before and after, she was hospitalized and had many tests done in the hospital. She was finally released Sunday after what it seemed was 24 hours of being seizure free. I'm not actually sure if that was true though because the abscence seizures are so hard to point out when a child is staring at a tv all day. She had another absence seizure as soon as she got home, but the doctors said to wait it out and she should be back to her normal self soon. I'm concerned because I see several personality changes as well as some hyperactivity she didn't have before, I was wondering if this could be something that is still due to the seizures and could possibly wear off, or if it's the "new her" as some people have put it?
I understand, what I meant

I understand, what I meant was when they did me EEG it came back abnormal because it was on both sides and was diagnosed with generalized medication resistant epilepsy. I was just curious if they explained in detail the results. ( I hope that doesn't come across as snappy by the way Joe. )
