Epileptic
fits: Because
the brain is so complex, epileptic fits take many
forms, although each sufferer usually only
experiences one type, or a limited number of
types of fit. While over 40 different types of
fit have been described, the main physical
manifestations are:
Brief loss of awareness: Staring spells begins
without warning, and only last for a few seconds.
The child becomes unaware of his surroundings,
the eyes are still, but there may be rhythmic
blinking, rapid breathing or chewing movements.
The child is unaware of the fit, and is not
confused afterwards. Although these can occur
many times a day, absence fits are often
unnoticed by parents or teachers. Children with
absence fits may have difficulty in learning if
the problem is not recognised and treated.
Mood changes: The sensory or emotional systems
may be affected, causing a variety of symptoms.
These can include tingling or numbness, seeing
lights, hearing sounds, odd tastes or odd smells;
and feeling emotions like fear, sadness, anger or
even joy. It may be that a specific memory is
triggered, or that there is a deja vu experience
- that an event appears as a previous memory,
even although it has only just happened. These
symptoms are often called an aura.
Muscle spasms: A single muscle, or a group of
muscles contracts, usually only for a second or
so, causing part of the body to jerk or, if the
contraction continues, to stiffen. The event may
be repeated several times, or the convulsive
movements may spread to other parts of the body.
Loss of muscle tone: In this case, a group of
muscles relax, for example causing the child to
fall. The arms or the body muscles, for example,
may go limp. Obviously, this can cause physical
harm, and children prone to drop attacks often
have to wear protective headgear.
Loss of consciousness: Finally, there may be,
complete loss of consciousness.
In a typical fit, various of these physical
manifestations may be combined. Thus in a
generalised tonic clonic fit, the child may emit
a short cry, lose consciousness and fall to the
floor; the muscles stiffen (tonic phase) and then
the limbs jerk and twitch (clonic phase); bladder
control may be lost. Consciousness is regained
slowly, and afterwards the child may feel
fatigue, confusion and disorientation. These
final effects may last for a few minutes or
several hours.
The pattern of fit depends on where in the brain
the epileptic event starts, and how it propagates
to other areas of the brain. In a simple fit
pattern, the event only occurs in one area of the
brain. In more complex patterns, like the one
described above, it starts in one area of the
brain and propagates to other areas.
While there is a wide variety of patterns of fit,
most children who suffer from fits will
experience the same pattern of fit on successive
occasions, or at most a limited number of
different patterns. The pattern of fits may also
evolve with time.
The consequences to the child are not related to
the physical violence of the fit. While violent
fits may cause physical damage, most fits are not
thought to further harm the brain. However, some
of the minor manifestations, particularly minor
tremors in babies a few months old may be an
indicator of infantile spasms, a serious
condition, which can cause serious damage to the
brain, and needs to be treated as soon as
possible. It is important to consult a doctor if
you notice anything that might be a fit. It is
better to be safe than sorry.
Example: As indicated by the above
description, the notion that people who have
epileptic fits are dangerous or violent are
uninformed. An epileptic might fall over and hurt
himself, but he's really not likely to do harm to
anyone else.
(Wish I had known this when I was a child. Bobby
T. tended to be shunned because he had epilepsy;
other children were needlessly afraid of him.
Of course, there's the part Bobby played in this
himself--he made those of us who were smaller and
younger think
he might hurt us. As an adult, I recognize now
that this might just have been a defense
mechanism,
but I didn't know it then.)
