Epilepsy, which is sometimes referred to as a “seizure disorder,” is the fourth most common neurological disorder in the world. Epilepsy is a diverse group of neurological disorders of varying types and severities that are characterized by recurrent seizures.
When a person has had two or more seizures more than twenty-four hours apart that have not been provoked by specific events such as a stroke, brain injury, infection, fever, or fluctuations in blood sugar, they are considered to have epilepsy. A person can also be diagnosed with epilepsy if they have one or more unprovoked seizures and a probability of future seizures.
CURE Epilepsy's Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Laura Lubbers, provides some basic information about epilepsy, including the symptoms and causes of Epilepsy.
