Seizures question?


why is it that some doctors say not to smoke or drink if you have a seizures desorder and have these seizures FOR life? what happens if you drink or smoke?

it could possibly bring on a seizure or other disorder................

Smoking and Drinking can seriously complicate ANY disorder b/c of their effects on the brain, heart, lungs...

More specifically with seizures, and especially epilepsy, Smoking and drinking impair your brain. Seizures happen when there are abnormal electrical discharges in the brain. With those who are prone to seizing, Smoking and Drinking, by definition, only encourage more abnormalities than those that obviously already exist.

In all reality, Doctors tell you not to smoke and drink even if you're perfectly healthy. Hello, they can both kill you!
