Epilepsy Program
Epilepsy is a serious medical condition that requires specialized care and treatment. Though serious, epileptic seizures can be controlled. Our neurologists can help find what’s causing your child’s seizures and provide them with a treatment plan to help them live a normal life.
The signs and symptoms of epileptic seizures can range from full-body spasms to your child becoming completely still and unresponsive. Contact a neurologist if you notice any of the following:
- Staring
- Jerking movements of the arms and legs
- Stiffening of the body
- Loss of consciousness
- Breathing problems or breathing stops
- Loss of bowel or bladder control
- Falling suddenly
- Becoming unresponsive
- Appearing confused or in a haze
- Nodding the head rhythmically
- Rapid eye blinking
