I just found out i have epilepsy I've been what i thought was fainting for at least 10 yrs. I just recently seen a
neurologist and have been on my medication for about a week.
i was wondering about seizures related to drinking. when i first started drinking, i could drink a lot and not get too drunk
or have a hangover. but one day i got drunk and blacked-out and woke up with a terrible hangover, and i had what i believe
now was a mild seizure. Basically every time after that, that i drank i would black out and not remember really anything from
that night and i would wake up to a hangover and seizure. during the black-outs i behave like a normal person, but not like
myself. I would be more aggressive, angry and i would have bad judgment (i would be very gullible), then i would pass out and
go to sleep. This happens even when i drink a relatively small amount. Like my friends of the same age and similar body types
would never get as drunk as me or have black-outs even when they've drank more than me. I don't really drink
anymore but could my epilepsy have caused me to have seizure activity when i drank alcohol, making me more prone to
blackouts? Does epilepsy affect alcohol tolerance.
