If So.
If it is Epilepsy - it can be triggered by a head injury.

It is hereditary in my husbands family.
my son had a head injury when he was 4 yrs old with a epileptic seizure.
The Pediatric Neurologist said the fall with the head injury triggered his epilepsy sooner & that he might grow out of it.
He had one Grand Mall Seizure that day & Petit Mall there afterwards till his was older. He was meds 3 times a day for Vertigo until he was about 16 yrs old.
You know, if he did we are unaware of it...but we thought about that too. I have a friend that has a daughter that is epileptic...and hers also was triggered by a head injury, she fell off a trampoline...I think she was like 8 years old at the time, she takes a whole lot of medications too...maybe she'll out grow it...Sorry about your son, but he's doing fine now, right?
