Neurological Disorders and Stroke

Epilepsy is a class of neurological disorders categorized by recurrent epileptic seizures. Epileptic seizures are episodes that can differ from shortened and nearly undetectable periods to long periods of vigorous shaking. These episodes can develop in physical injuries, including frequently broken bones. Epilepsy, seizures have a tendency to recur and, as a rule, have no immediate proving cause. Isolated seizures that are arouse by a specific cause such as poisoning are not deemed to represent epilepsy.

• Generalized onset seizures
• Focal onset seizures
• Unknown onset seizures

Parkinson’s disease is a disorder of the central nervous system that affects movement, often including tremors. Nerve cell damage in the brain causes dopamine levels to drop, leading to the symptoms of Parkinson’s. Parkinson’s often starts with a tremor in one hand. Other symptoms are slow movement, stiffness and loss of balance. Medication can help control the symptoms of Parkinson's.
