Hello!

Welcome on Healthcaremagic!

The difficulty walking could be related to a partial paralysis after the seizure (which is quite a common phenomenon).
Confusion after the seizure could also explain the gait difficulty.
Anyway, I would recommend performing a brain MRI in order to exclude any possible brain lesions, which can lead to seizures and gait disturbances.

You should discuss with your doctor on this test.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Best wishes, Dr. Aida
