Yes, and then he hit ANOTHER car a few minutes down the road in another township before being discovered unconscious by the police. If this was a seizure, they need to study him, because nobody in recorded medical history has ever had a seizure of this nature before.

There are some partial seizures that do leave you conscious, but altered. Then partial seizures can then become generalized into a full blown grand mal.

There is not a one size fits all with seizures.

I would think he would have an abnormal EEG if that was the case.

Also, do they know if he was on anti-seizure medication and forgot to take it. That can also trigger seizures.

Of course, all of this is frightening to me because my 15 year old daughter is about to start driving. We also are taking her off of meds because she hasn’t had a seizure in years. Seizures are scary.
