Epilepsy is a neurological brain disorder that makes people more prone to recurrent unprovoked seizures. It is one of the most common disorders of the nervous system and affects people of all ages, races, and ethnicities. Anything that disrupts the normal connections between nerve cells in the brain can cause a seizure; These include high fever, low blood sugar, alcohol or drug withdrawal, or concussion. Under these circumstances, anyone can have one or more seizures. However, if a person has two or more recurrent unprovoked seizures, they are considered to have epilepsy.
