Scarlet Fever Long-term Effects
Posted: 09-14-07 17:18pm

I had Scarlet Fever as a small child. Now, in m forties, whenever I have a fever from flu or food poisoning or whatever, I have a seizure. I'm wondering if these fever-related seizures could be a lingering long-term effect of the childhood illness. I don't have epilepsy, so I can't figure out what else the seizures could be about.

Have you gone to any doctors about this? Seizures are a very serious medical condition.
