DEFINITION OF EPILEPSY. According to the Epilepsy Foundation of America, epilepsy is a physical condition that occurs when there is a sudden, brief change in how the brain works.
Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological disorder and affects people of all ages. Epilepsy means the same thing as seizure disorders. Epilepsy is characterized by unpredictable seizures and can cause other health problems. Epilepsy is a spectrum condition with a wide range of seizure types and control varying from person-to-person. Public misunderstandings of epilepsy cause challenges that are often worse than the seizures.
