Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of epilepsy include: Elevated creatine phosphokinase (CPK), elevated cortisol, elevated white blood cell count, elevated lactate dehydrogenase and elevated neuron-specific enolase.
Laboratory Findings
- Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of a seizure attack include:[1][2]
- Elevated creatine phosphokinase (CPK)
- Elevated cortisol
- Elevated white blood cell count
- Elevated lactate dehydrogenase
- Elevated neuron-specific enolase
- For the first seizure episode, in order to find the etiology we should test for:[3]
