We don't know if Spodgumine has epilepsy. We could run tests to find out, but they all involve putting her under sedation, and at her age, with her poor health (renal disease, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat) it seems like a poor trade, a little information that can't meaningfully improve her life for the chance of her having a bad reaction to anaesthesia.
