Febrile Seizures
Hi there!
I was wondering if adults with epilepsy can have febrile seizures as well? I know they are most common in children. I had a high fever and had one recently and was wondering if there could be a connection.
Hi there! Great question! I found this article on this on our site that discusses how high body temperatures can cause febrile seizure-related epilepsy syndrome. You can read more here: https://epilepsydisease.com/clinical/does-weather-affect-epilepsy
I hope this helps! Wishing you all the best, Kailah (Epilepsy Team Member)
