Epilepic Seizure?!


Question: For about a week now, my fiancee had an off and on ear ache. But today, he came home from work complaining of a watery eye, slurred speech (one side of his mouth droops slightly), and some dumbness in his face. This is all on his left side of his face. Could this possibably be an unknown Epileptic seizure? He is only 29 years old, but is that possible?

He is going to the emergency room, but I was just wondering if anyone knows of these symptoms off hand and what might be causing it?

This does not sound like a seizure - it sounds more like Bell's Palsy. Go to WebMd and type in Bell's Palsy and it will give you lots of information.

Sounds like a stroke.

These signs are not of a seizure and are VERY serious . . . go to an ER immediately. Don't leave until they tell you a reason for every symptom he has. If you are not satisfied go to a doctor or another ER.

my friend had similar symptoms and they told her it was bell's palsy...
she was only 17.
it lasted about 3weeks and then she was back to normal...
it's more scary than anything...
