In a lab, let someone know that you do have epilepsy. Tell that person what to do in the event of a convulsion. Calling 911 is not necessarily the best thing to do. If you have reasonable seizure management, a ride home from a friend beats a bumpy and expensive ambulance ride to a hospital. Tell people to look at the second hand of their watches in the event of a seizure.
Doctors often ask how long an epileptic is unconcious.
