Can Chlorine Intolerance Cause Seizures?

I have a chlorine allergy/intolerance. At home, I have a full-house water filter. I experienced a seizure when I returned from a trip without filtered water and several pool trips. I have found some folks online sharing their experiences, but has any research been done on chlorine/chemical related seizures?

HI
Well come to HCM
Chlorine does not induce the seizure, again you have not given the exact nature of seizure, this may not be seizure but could be functional tremors only and this could be nothing to worry, low down your stress level and keep your self away from the opinion, if the symptom persist then better to get done the CT of head, hope this helps.
