over 50yrs of personal experience. Fits come it all sorts of forms from light tremors and being awake, to full out nashing your teeth, frothing at the mouth, violent body spasms and unconious on the floor, or in bed, and pissing your pants..more than half the effects you named could be classed in the fit zone..get a range of tests done along with your bloods, and quickly while the effects are still there...fits can occur at any age..knock off the booze for awhile because if you had one, another could be just below the surface, like ruddy earthquakes..good luck

just saying, alcohol triggers fits, its a brain thing, and IF you have just had one, more drinking could trigger a second one being so close to the first..I would not drive also until you have an answer. Would hate to hear that you, and your missus, had a motor accident

dude, listen to your body.. If you indeed had a seizure or stroke of some type you need to consult a physician. The longer you wait the more damage there may be. Of course, if you did suffer such an event you might not be able to make a rational decision to go see the doc.. If any of you guys are good buddies with him, go get him and get him to the hospital...

I SECOND THAT...and I am an epileptic of the worse kind. There my secret of nearly 60yrs is out.
But true if this Mate of ours Papafarang has had an attack, and it seems like a major one at that, he will be disorientated, lack lustre, in denial...he sounds like he has been thru the mill already with heart conditions, but up late at night in the wee hours cooking, is another trigger for fits..he needs sleep right now...he will be exhausted after that episode, like been in a rugby scrum I think he said..true.. the body suffer huge stresses and tensions during an attack..its draining. it can take days after to get over..not good to be up late at night cooking..**** the cooking..think of yourself and your family for afew days at least...get that man to a doctor before he has another one, or a heart attack, and dies on us..Come on Mates, get in there

I have read with interest the subject of fits which reminds of my son who was diagnosed with epilepsy when he was 16 years of age. Our family life was turned upside down mainly due to the fact that he had fits without any warning. The fits were described as “grand mall seizures” and the intensity varied considerably and could occur on a daily basis but sometimes weeks would pass without a fit.
I could of course go into a lot more detail but for now I strongly recommend visiting a doctor and vital to take the person with you that witnessed what happened. I always accompanied my son for visits to his consultant to explain the fits that he had experienced. It is of course vital to obtain an accurate diagnosis particularly if there are other underlying health issues.
I truly hope that it is not epilepsy but get checked out ASAP
