Patients with abdominal epilepsy can experience abdominal pain, and some may show symptoms of bloating, nausea, and vomiting, as well as diarrhea. Abdominal epilepsy is a type of epilepsy, commonly seen in children and adolescents. The symptoms generally recur and last mostly from three to five minutes. If the symptoms last more than five minutes, it is usually called a status epilepticus, and some antiepileptic drugs can be used to control the seizures. After an epileptic episode, an EEG might show spike-and-wave patterns. If the EEG is normal, a dynamic EEG can be conducted, which might increase the positive diagnostic rate for patients.
