New onset

My 5 year old son was diagnosed a day ago. He’s only had one known seizure and it lasted 15 minutes. My question is this: Since the seizure he’s urinating twice as much as normal if not more. Is that normal?

I couldn't say Megdella. But it is important that you are taking notes. By the way, in terms of him urinating? Does he seem any different during those events? Different as in not so present if you ask him questions. My best advice to you is to take notes. And feel free to call his neurologist to make it known. That way the neurologist might be able to better assess whether it's something related or just coincidence because he or she may have more questions. Best Regards
