Epilepsy; Facts to Know.
|
* Epilepsy is usually described as a family of brain disorders that involve nerve cells that misfire, or signal abnormally, causing a seizure.
* Epilepsy can affect anyone at any age. However, people over the age of 65 account for about 24 percent of the total 2.5 million people with epilepsy, according to the Epilepsy Foundation.
* Approximately one million women in the U.S. are being treated for epilepsy.
* There is no single cause of epilepsy. Some of the known causes include injury to the brain before, during or after birth, infections and ...
