[|Human|] My dad, 53, is diabetic and is on treatment for the same since 5yrs or so recently he had a convulsion for which the ct scan or other tests did not reveal a cause but he had intermittent abdominal pain and diarrhoea a few days before and after the incident.He took the necessary drug given- sodium valproate and is fine now. His doctor ruled out hypoglycemia as a cause and also changed his anti diabetic drug from glimepiride to saxaglipitin What could be the cause for dads seizure? Could it be intestinal worms? Can it occur again?
[|AI|]  Hello, as there was no abnormality in CT scan i don't think it is due to worms and as the doctor has ruled out hypoglycemia he has to take sodium valproate for 2-3 years depending on the response to the treatment. The cause of epilepsy cannot be found out some time but as he is diabetic, hypoglycemia should be ruled out. Was the blood sugar tested when he became unconscious and the seizure can also be hypoglycemic seizure which does not require continuous treatment. So it is very important that hypoglycemia is ruled out.
