About Epilepsy
Approximately one percent of Canadians have epilepsy. Over 50 million people worldwide experience this condition that is more prevalent than multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy and Parkinson's Disease combined. In spite of the large number of people who have epilepsy, and in spite of the efforts of epilepsy organizations such as ours, epilepsy remains a condition beset by myths and misunderstanding in the general public. The resulting stigma arising from public misconceptions has led to social isolation and a decrease of self esteem among people who fear the repercussions of disclosing the fact that they have epilepsy.

    zSB(3,3) Epilepsy is a condition where nerve cells in one area of the brain, or in multiple areas of the brain, signal abnormally to each other. In a normal brain, signaling between nerve cells is required for communication and is used to carry out all processes in the body, such as movement. When nerve cells abnormally fire, they can cause a seizure . While one seizure can occur under certain conditions in anybody, epilepsy is a condition where somebody has multiple seizures. These individuals will require medication and other means to control their seizures.
    What Causes Epilepsy And Seizures?
    • a stroke
    • trauma to the head and brain
    • certain medications
    • fever
    • alcohol withdrawal
    • a tumor in the brain
    • an infection
    • certain metabolic conditions (like low blood sugar, low sodium, or low calcium levels)

    Epilepsy is NOT contagious and people with epilepsy are NOT "crazy." The word "epilepsy" comes from a Greek word meaning "to possess, seize or hold." Because the brain uses electrochemical energy , any disruption of the electrical processes in the brain may cause abnormal functioning. Unfortunately, this is what happens during epilepsy: neurons in the cerebral hemispheres misfire and create abnormal electrical activity. People with epilepsy have seizures that are a bit like an electrical brainstorm. The seizure prevents the brain from:
    • interpreting and processing incoming sensory signals (like visual, somatosensory and auditory information).
    • controlling muscles. That is why people with epilepsy may fall down and twitch.
    Types of Epilepsy
    There are many types of epilepsy. Each type of epilepsy has different behavioral effects and is treated with different methods. In some cases, people know they are about to have a seizure because they see or hear something, or feel dizzy, nauseous, or "strange." This is called an aura . An aura can act as an "early warning system" telling a person that a seizure is about to happen. The person can therefore minimize a possible injury by taking precautions such as sitting down.
  • Generalized seizures - uncontrollable discharge of neurons on BOTH sides of the brain. This is the most common type of epilepsy. The seizure starts in one area of the brain and spreads across the brain. These seizures produce muscle twitches, convulsions and loss of consciousness. People with this type of epilepsy do not remember having a seizure.
