Abstract
Reflex seizures occur in response to a variety of stimuli from the common (e.g. light) to the rare (e.g. orgasms). Two forms of reflex epilepsy related to bathing are well described: 1. “hot water epilepsy” (HWE), where seizures are triggered by the act of immersing the head under hot water and 2. “bathing epilepsy” where seizures are provoked by body immersion in lukewarm water [6]. Both have a characteristic semiology and epidemiology and are more common in males in India and Turkey, with a strong genetic susceptibility.
