As per your explanation I understand he also must be having blood pressure on a higher side. So do check on it regular. If it remains high then visit your doctor for change in medication. As well people with stroke and history of epilepsy we suggest them to take anti epileptic medication on a regular basis as per the neuro physician advice. So continue with that too. And also check once his hemoglobin level and platelets in blood report because many times due to low hemoglobin and variation in platelets also will give similar symptoms.
