epileptic attack

Though it could mean an attack by one or more epileptics, but normally doesn't, it still seems SoP to me. DCDuring TALK 15:39, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

To me too. --Hekaheka (talk) 18:01, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Which sense of attack is used in this SOP? Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV 20:26, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for asking. The formerly missing sense: "an active episode of a chronic or recurrent disease". DCDuring TALK 21:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

That’s what I suspected. Delete. Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV 11:39, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Delete. It's possible to describe a bout of any chronic condition/disease as a(n) "____ attack." Hence I consider this SOP, unlike "heart attack," which refers to an organ and could thus potentially mean an episode of any cardiac condition, but is only used to refer to a specific cardiac event (namely, myocardial infarction).
