The cause of an individual's epilepsy can be divided into two category: symptomatic and idiopathic. Symptomatic epilepsies originate due to some structural or metabolic abnormality surrounded by the brain. This may be the result of:

* stroke

* neurosurgical operation
* bacterial or viral encephalitis
* parasitical infection

* inoculation (especially during or shortly after having a fever)
The permanent status cryptogenic is used to describe epilepsy where the rationale is suspected to be symptomatic but the underlying illness or desecrate has not be identified.
The term idiopathic medium "a disorder unto itself", and not "cause unknown". No other condition have been implicated as the rationale of the epilepsy. Idiopathic epilepsies are often but not exclusively genetic and generalized - for example, Juvenile Absence Epilepsy.

They laughed and said that be the best way to put it.
