Symptom #5: Seizures
Seizures are episodes where there can be brief and undetectable to long periods of vigorous shaking that may result in physical injuries. It is an uncontrolled and sudden electrical disturbance in the brain that can alter behavior and levels of consciousness. Causes of seizures include epilepsy, head injury, stroke, meningitis, and more.
Patients who experience seizures can experience uncontrollable jerking of the body, confusion, loss of consciousness, anxiety, loss of awareness, and more. An episode of seizure that has never occurred before should be considered as a medical emergency.
