Hi,

Thanks for posting.
Seizures are somewhat common in patients with bipolar disorder. However the exact relationship has not been worked out till now. Some links have been worked out like seizures are more common after head injuries and even bipolar disorders have been known to occur after head injuries. Similarly estrogen therapy has been known to worsen both these conditions.
It is difficult to tell if headaches could have led to the seizure attack.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
