My roomy has seizures, Pretty bad when he has them. Right now he is in the hospital once again. I am very concerened. He does not do drugs, but likes to drink. What pops up is epilepsy.
Seizures can result from a wide variety of causes, such as metabolic abnormalities and head injury.
In other words, they occur under relatively normal conditions. Drinking alcohol can cause seizures, either during intoxication or withdrawal. Also, intoxication or withdrawal can aggravate seizures in someone who already has epilepsy. Whether your friend has alcohol-related seizures only, or also has epilepsy must be determined after an evaluation by someone knowledgeable in this area, usually a neurologist or epileptologist. Either way, he should stop drinking alcohol.
