Overview

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterised by recurrent seizures caused by abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Seizures can vary from brief episodes of staring or muscle jerking to prolonged convulsions and loss of consciousness. Epilepsy can affect people of all age groups including infants, children, adults and the elderly.

Many patients can achieve excellent seizure control with proper diagnosis and medication, while some may require advanced interventions such as epilepsy surgery, neuromodulation therapy or specialised long-term monitoring. Early diagnosis and expert treatment are essential to reduce complications and improve quality of life.

At KIMSHEALTH, our Advanced Comprehensive Epilepsy Centre provides integrated care for all types of epilepsy and seizure disorders using evidence-based neurological care and state-of-the-art neuroimaging technology.

Symptoms of Epilepsy

Symptoms of epilepsy may vary depending on the type of seizure and the area of the brain affected. Common symptoms include:

• Recurrent seizures or fits
• Sudden loss of consciousness
• Uncontrolled jerking movements of arms and legs
• Temporary confusion or disorientation
• Staring spells
• Sudden muscle stiffness or collapse
• Loss of awareness or responsiveness
• Tingling sensations or unusual sensory experiences
• Sudden emotional changes or fear
• Memory lapses after seizure episodes
• Difficulty speaking during episodes

Patients experiencing recurrent seizures or unexplained blackouts should seek immediate neurological evaluation.
