removal of tonsil will not effect his health. epilepsy cant be related to tonsillectomy. if it was already there then it should be treated properly. if he has got the seizure for first then all required investigation should be done like EEG and MRI brain. after getting the result can consult neurologist and get advise on treatment.should take nutritious semisolid food or drink and fresh fruits. should get treatment for migraine. start migrainil one tablet and increase up to 6tab till free from symptoms.
