epilepsy
There is a guy at work who has epilepsy, he normally has like 3-4 minor fits a week (at work) but they are not really that noticeable, he just kind of blanks out for a little bit... but yesterday he had the worse fit I had seen him have, he was making noises and he kind of half fell backwards of his chair and, you know, he was pretty out of it, for about 30 seconds, then he fell on the floor and kind of started... then he sort of came too, went to the bathroom for 5 minutes, and when he came back he said he was ok.
I just... is there anything you can do for someone when they go into a fit?
He has said all we can do is leave him when he goes like that... but, is there a point where it gets to when it isnt a good idea to leave him?
When he went down I was thinking - should I call one of the first aiders...? but 10 minutes later he seemed fine, he was very quiet, but I guess that was probably more he felt ackward.
