What is epilepsy?
Epilepsy causes brain activity to become abnormal. It causes seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations, and sometimes a lack of awareness. A person may stare blankly for a few seconds or twitch arms and legs. Many patients recover with medicines, care, and psychological help, and many may need lifelong treatment to control the intensity and frequency of seizures.

Diagnosis and Treatment
Diagnosis need experts to use techniques like Electroencephalogram, CT scan MRI and many others that can help in accurate detection. Medicine and surgery help to control the occurrence of epilepsy time and again. However, there are some therapies as well that act as alternative measures. Implanting a device under the skin like a pace-maker sends electric signals to the brain and helps to inhibit seizures. Dietary measures include following a strict diet high in fats and low in carbohydrates, a ketogenic diet. But it has demerits and limitations. Brain stimulation needs surgeons to implant electrodes into a specific part of the brain, typically the thalamus. It sends electrical pulses to your brain and may reduce your seizures.
