Dear
For this you should consult a good Neurophysician and if you had already been there then tell me what test done and what is the treatment he undergone.
I would also like to know about the detail past history of your brother.

Hi,
Thanks for query,
It seems that your brother might have Epilepsy and requires urgent evaluation.
Consult neurophysician.
After EEG and other investigations he will go for diagnosis and treatment.
Fit should be avoided as it may cause some brain damage if fit remains for long time.
Ok and bye.

Hi well comet to hcm.
In child hood what was the reason for convulsion,was it febrile convulsion or epileptic
feets is quite important to kow.At present convulsion may be in relation to child hood
convulsion,or may not be.Any way detail assesment with the help of EEG,CT brain,Lab
reports and at times CSF examintion may be needed to diagnose any convulsion.How
ever in your brothers case more likely to be epileptic convulsion as already he had in
child hood.Better consult neurophysician he would explain you the course of disease.
