| Re: Seizures and Blood Alcohol
Generally those with any sort of head injury have a decreased tolerance to alcohol....add in the alcohol, and behavior can become more erratic, especially if the frontal lobes are effected....so, head injury + alcohol= trouble. As for seizures on their own, alcohol can decrease the seizure threshold, so that's also a problem. And, the head injury doesn't have to be a prolonged coma/hospitalization sort of injury- can be a concussion, or repeated concussions, as many kids have doing normal kid things...
