70 Year Old Otherwise Healthy Woman I Had A Sudden

70 year old otherwise healthy woman I had a sudden grand mal seizure I was in the hospital for other reasons. So I had help. But now I am supposed to take meds. Which I do now but resent. One seizure and right away meds. Is that really necessary. I don't have a doctor for 2 years as why bother as healthy. But now I have to find one plus also a specialist (neurologist). Well I ask u first. The reasons I was in the emergency for I forgot. I must have felt sick that morning. After the seizure I became very confused and forgetful like I had lost rain tissue. Is that normal?
