The most common symptom of<unk>  is<unk> . The<unk>  can be fragmented or multifocal and can be triggered by posture, actions, and external stimuli such as light, sound, and touch. The type of<unk>  differs between the types of<unk> . Other symptoms of<unk>  include generalized, tonic clonic, tonic, and atypical absence seizures. In Lafora’s disease the seizures are occipital and the person experiences transient blindness as well as visual hallucinations. The person may also have atypical absences and atonic and complex partial seizures. In<unk>  epilepsy with ragged-red fibers (MERRF) the person experiences generalized epilepsy along with<unk> , weakness, and dementia. As<unk>  progresses neurological ability decreases and can lead to myopathy, neuropathy, cognitive decline, cerebellar ataxia, and dementia. The different symptoms in each of the<unk>  and between individuals makes diagnosis difficult. Therefore, diagnosis of<unk>  is dependent on failure to respond to antiepileptic drugs and therapy but diagnosis of specific<unk>  depends on genetic testing, EEG (electroencephalography), enzyme measurements and more.
