Conditions commonly misdiagnosed as epilepsy…

A moment of unresponsiveness …the inability to recall what just happened…convulsions or jerking movements…sudden stiffness of the body.
These are classic symptoms of an epilepsy seizure — triggered by abnormal electrical impulses in the brain.
And while these symptoms may indicate epilepsy, other brain abnormalities or injuries could also lead to seizures.
Having a seizure doesn’t automatically mean you have epilepsy. And without testing, the diagnosis – or misdiagnosis – can be pretty scary.
