that is a good question. my son just had 2 tonic clinics 10hrs apart and am wondering the same. Ithink if you recover well between them its not so much of an emergency. will prob need a med change and keep your rescue medicine nearby. I would recommend contacting your neuro asap to discuss as I will be as soon as i can.

I have to agree with @A MyEpilepsyTeam Member, if you recover good to the point where some of us have rescue medication, or you don't have any more after that, contact 24 hour phone emergency services. Otherwise, you will have to pay a hefty emergency bill.

my son has a seizure then right when he comes out of it about 5 minutes later another and another and I have to call an ambulance.. because they won't stop...we told his doctor but he never said anything about the Emergency rescue seizure medication.

They are a nasal spray for that but someone has to be there with you to give it to you I have seizures back to back they are really scary...I'm so sorry you have them like that .I would talk to your doctor about it.
