Provide details of brain imaging too and clinical prescription details

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and report and understand your concern.
Brain imaging is also required to suggest about prognosis.
EEG helps in proving abnormalities and seizures.
This EEG is abnormal and suggest seizures.
If the drug is tolerated,then no complications.
Try to keep him away from open fire, roof, pond or swimming pool, alone on a busy road.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
