Small electrical impulses are used by nerve cells in the brain to communicate with one
another. Neurotransmitters are chemical mediators that help these impulses spread
throughout the body. The electrical activity of the brain is often quite regular.
When someone is diagnosed with epilepsy, their brain's electrical connections, and activity3
change abnormally, resulting in brief electrical impulse bursts that have an impact on their
thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Epilepsy and epilepsy syndromes come in a wide variety of
forms.
