I have a question concerning my mother. She is traveling by car to me with my grandmother today and while she was driving the car her limbs started shaking uncontrollably to where she could barely pull the car over. She also is having pain in her knee and is now feeling sick to her stomach. She did take some ibprofin a little bit ago and is seeming a little better as time goes on. but we want to know if we should take her to the ER or just a regular doctor because my grandmother says it looked like she was having a seizure. and while shaking she said her eyes were watering excesssively.
Hello, If your grandmother witnessed whole body shaking while your mother was handling the car and your mother was unable to respond to any questions or comments by any of the passengers while she was pulling the vehicle over then, this could be an indication that she may have lapsed in her state of alertness for a moment and that could certainly constitute an incidental seizure of the brain.  On the other hand, if your mother was simply in a lot of pain but has perfect recollection of the situation including any conversations that people were having with her including questions they were asking her while she was pulling over then, she may have simply been in severe pain. If this were the case then, taking her to her doctor first may be satisfactory in a few days. In any case, I would not allow her to Chat Doctor.  Take Care!
