Nepalepsy

Nepalepsy

Nepalepsy (sometimes referred to as a seizure disorder, or the "chills") is a common chronic neurological condition that is characterized by recurrent and often unprovoked minor epileptic seizures. This condition is relatively common, although it is rarely documented in modern medical journals.

Symptoms

The most common symptom of nepalepsy is infrequent and sudden shaking of the body, sometimes accompanied with a slight chilling sensation and verbal outbursts. While these minor seizures are not painful, they can be quite embarrassing to those who suffer from it.

Other symptoms may include chronic substance abuse, inability to concentrate on simple tasks, or short term memory loss. Many patients who suffer from chronic nepalepsy have reported that they often have trouble waking up in the morning, and it is not uncommon for them to sleep for extended periods of time through the morning hours.

Male patients who have been diagnosed with nepalepsy are also more likely to experience erectile dysfunction while in their adolescent years.

Causes of Nepalepsy

Since there has been little research done in the field of nepalepsy, the cause remains unknown. Some medical researchers have speculated that it is a neurological disorder, and is triggered by extended periods of time engaged in computer simulations and video games.
