I have recently been diagnosed with epilepsy even though I have no family history,had no seizures head traumas or high fevers as a child and EEG and MRI are all normal. i was wondering if participating in Judo for the past three years could be the cause. Judo involves a lot of throwing of ourselves and other people. I have never got knocked uncounsious but could hitting you head hard and constantly be enough to do some damage? Also, if itis enough to damage would it have showed up on the MRI? Thank-you for your time.   Tara
