Question
Last month on the 30th, my child had diarrhea and twitching, at which time their eyes rolled back and they vomited white foam, with their limbs remaining rigid for 20 seconds. I now want to ask whether an EEG examination is needed to diagnose epilepsy.
Answer
Based on the provided EEG examination results, there are signs of an epilepsy seizure. It is recommended that the patient be diagnosed as soon as possible and begin treatment, following the doctor’s instructions to take anti-seizure medications and pay attention to daily life adjustments, including adequate rest, regular diet, and avoiding irritating food. In addition, regular follow-up visits to the hospital should be scheduled.
