My Daughter is getting these Twitches or glitches thats what she call them, today she had them for about 20min on the school bus, she dorpped her phone and was unable to walk for a little while. When she got home i took her to a clinic, they drew blood and checked her pressure everthing was fine. she is ok for now. Not sure what is happening, she has had them before but never this bad. Can some one please advise on what this maybe? I dont think there seizures, Thanks
Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is possible that your daughter experienced a partial complex seizure. This is not the complete seizure like episode that people call fits but a minor form. However, if this has been happening since earlier, it should be investigated in detail. Taking blood pressure and doing blood tests might be normal, but this requires detailed clinical examination on guidelines of epilepsy and seizure. Please take an appointment from a neurologist or epilepsy clinic and get her examined in detail. She might require investigations like CT scan or MRI scan brain and electroencephalography to tell where exactly the problem might be in her brain. These episodes occur due to changes in the electrical activity in the brain and when the brain gets excited and starts discharging impulses which are not in a normal pattern.
