امرأة عمرها ٢٩ سنة، معلمة وتقود سيارتها يومياً للمدرسة، عندها صرع، وجاءتها نوبة تشنج كبرى قبل أسبوع بعد سنتين بدون نوبات بسبب قلة النوم. تسأل الممرض متى تقدر ترجع تقود. ما الإجابة الصحيحة؟

A 29-year-old teacher who drives to school daily has epilepsy and had a tonic-clonic seizure a week ago, after two seizure-free years, due to sleep deprivation. She asks when she can drive again. What is the correct answer?

1. She stops driving for the period her doctor and regulations require
2. She can drive normally if she takes her morning dose
3. She can drive at night only when roads are empty
4. She can drive two days after a seizure as the risk is over

Answer: A) She stops driving for the period her doctor and regulations require. Driving after a seizure endangers the client and others, and a restriction period applies, set by regulations and the physician according to seizure type and control.
