My husband (72) had his 1st seizure in 2/25. It was not witnessed by anyone but he had chewed his lip and tongue. He had also fallen and had 2 fractured his spine and neck. He was also diagnosed with pneumonia and a very elevated white blood count. At this time we got an appointment with a neurologist for 5/6/25.
Then on 4/25, almost 2 months to the day, he had 3 seizures about 2 hours apart. At the hospital they did brain scans, MRI on his brain and a spinal tap looking for an infection that they might have missed. They could find no reason for the seizure. We were told that often they cannot pinpoint the cause of the seizure.
We did go to the appointment on 5/6. He had had a headache since the day before his most recent seizure, the neurologist was able to give him injections in the back of his head that got rid of his headache.
We have an appointment on Tuesday with a neurologist that specializes in seizures. He is about 50 miles away hopefully we will get some answers.
My husband is now on Keppra.
