Talk:Atonic seizure

Symptoms, Get In Here!
If you have been diagnosed with Atonic Epilepsy (or Absence Epilepsy, while I'm thinking about it), please answer me this: I yawn and stretch usually immediately before I exhibit symptoms similar to those of Atonic Seizures. Is that a common symptom? Raekuul, bringer of Tropes (He does it without notability) 02:08, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Treatment
Can we add a section regarding treatment? Dryphi (talk) 15:53, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Treatment of atonic seizures

There is no one treatment method for any patient with a seizure disorder. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual patient based on their diagnosis and symptoms. Treatment options may include medical therapy, nerve stimulation, dietary therapy, or surgery, as appropriate. Clinical trials may also be a valuable treatment alternative.

Occurence
References are scarce. Better sources that came up during my research actually point out that atonic seizures are rare, not common, if that's what this part refers to: ''Electroencephalography can be used to confirm diagnosis. It is minor and relatively common, and can be indicative of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome'' Although the formulation would indicate that the EEG is minor and relatively common... seriously, who writes articles like this? 109.102.32.73 (talk) 11:54, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
