Dear All The Signs Of Epilepsy, But No Seizures,
FX is a little confused about what signs of epilepsy you are referring to since seizures are the main symptom of epilepsy. Regardless, if you think that something is wrong medically, you need to see your doctor. Only a doctor can diagnose any medical problems. If you do not have a doctor and live in northern New Jersey, please call the Adolescent/Young Adult Center for Health at (973) 971.6475. Outside of NJ, please call your local hospital for a referral.
The only idea of signs of epilepsy that FX thinks you could be having are those associated with seizures like what appear to be convulsions, staring blankly or losing consciousness. Or maybe someone else even noticed some behavior that is not normal. Regardless, FX recommends that you get these symptoms checked out by your doctor.
Also, FX just recently received a question titled Signs Of Epilepsy. This gives a more detailed look at epilepsy. If you have a more specific question, write another question to Ask FX or see your doctor.
