Interesting Seizure Case. Guess the Diagnosis

[Tigger]

Would this be a similar mechanism to eclamptic seizures?

This, I would think should present more along the lines of a hypertensive crisis patient, and at first glance lead most providers to believe it is more of the TIA/ CVA variety.

And a random "Snapple fun fact" about eclampsia and eclamptic sz, most women who have this can have them up to a couple of weeks post-partum.

I don't know how many providers are aware of this. I know I was never taught this in p school.
