Question
My daughter has epilepsy, and during her time in kindergarten, her peers avoided playing with her, worrying about her becoming overly shy. Therefore, we transferred her to a new kindergarten. During naptime, she experienced about 30 seconds of slight tremors in her lower body, occurring every 1 to 2 minutes, but no further episodes have occurred since then. However, one week later, she experienced a slight stiff tremor in her right foot, which stopped when called. Is this considered an episode?
Answer
The stiff tremor in the right foot before bedtime cannot be ruled out as an epileptic seizure. It is important to immediately visit a regular hospital for examination. Although epilepsy treatment can be challenging, it is not incurable. Maintaining a positive attitude and treating the disease in a timely manner is crucial; do not delay treatment. If she wishes to recover health, she must seek treatment at a regular hospital as soon as possible. During the treatment process, the patient should maintain confidence.
