Loss of Consciousness
Epilepsy is a condition that affects the central nervous system, which is responsible for delivering messages from and to the spinal cord and brain to other body parts. When there is a disruption, it will set off many health issues. That is why some cases of epilepsy can involve a loss of awareness or consciousness that happens unexpectedly. It tends to last anywhere from a couple of seconds up to several hours. In most cases, this symptom indicates the presence of a seizure that is occurring. It is often related to automatisms or repetitive and purposeless movements performed without awareness. [4]
