How do you know you're having a seizure?
Epilepsy is not considered until you have had more than one seizure. In order to be diagnosed with epilepsy, a neurologist will have an EEG done. This reads the electrical activity in your brain. From there, the doctor can determine weather or not you are epileptic.
How long should you wait to call an ambulance if somebody is having a fit?
If this person does not normally have seizures, then it is always appropriate to call an ambulance immediately. Some people with epilepsy or similar diseases can experience regular seizures that cause them no harm and are just inconvenient. Even these people can be subject to unusual seizure activity. If a person does not come out of a seizure after a few minutes, the situation is an emergency. If they seize once, start to wake up, then seize again, this is an emergency. If they start to turn blue, it is an emergency. If in doubt, call for the ambulance.
What safety issues would one need to consider when one is having a seizure?
If someone begins having a seizure, ensure that they are laying down comfortably on soft ground preferably with a pillow to keep their head from hitting the ground. Keep their body away from any dangerous objects (i.e. sharp or hot). Check to see if they have an epilepsy identity card or piece of jewelry. Remain calm and stay with them while they are having the seizure. Once the seizure is finished, turn them to their side and allow them to recuperate.
