Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Your symptoms are again suggestive of seizures. You need to restart your treatment after consulting your neurosurgeon.
Prolonged unconciousness is not associated with all types of seizures.
This problem needs a medical attention and investigations like CT scan and EEG are entailed. I encourage you to consult a neurologist who can guide you through the tests.
I hope this answers your query effectively.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Without proper examination and investigations it is difficult to assess the severity of disease. Recurrence can happen in a milder form too and it can gradually progress without proper treatment.
You need to consult a Neurophysician for proper diagnosis.
