hi
welcome to HCM
read your prob, there are no chance of appeare seizurs again if blood pressure is controlled. as cause of seizure was high BP. but when during 1st pregnancy bp was high then she will be more pron to high bp during next pregnancy. so keep in mind n start proper treatment as soon as possible.
