Chronic cocaine use can trigger seizures. Not necessarily right when you take it either. I doubt Kelly's going to admit that since her current job seems to be dependent on her "rehabilitated" image.

Eating disorders and certain anti-depressants/anxiety meds can trigger seizures too, as well as sleep deprivation, viruses, and intense stress. I mean, it might be coke, but her vice was painkillers like Vicodin and Oxycontin, so my mind didn't go there.

Other than her impulsive marriage, is there something else I'm missing that points to her being on drugs again?

I know a girl that started having seizures in her twenties...they can start at any age. Hopefully it was a one off thing or even as her rep says a fainting spell. Seizures are scary...my daughter has epilepsy and I wouldn't wish it for anyone.

I thought that she was no longer on drugs?

Did she have a seizure or did she faint? I'm confused. ITA re: drug use though. Even when people die of sudden heart attacks in their 40s and 50s, it's still drug related, IMO, if you did coke throughout your teens/20s. (See: Corey Haim) I had a seizure in a xanax-related incident; never had one after but I still have to list it on medical forms, even though it happened almost 20 years ago.

Bulimia causes seizures. She looks a lot like a bulimic - thin but still "puffy" ( especially her cheeks) and she has the thick, muscular neck bulimia can causes.

So she fainted possibly due to an eating disorder, but people think it may have been a seizure that's being covered up?

I thought she did have a seizure and it was witnessed by the audience of her show, but her "people" we're covering it up and claiming she fainted to steer the talk away from drugs and eating disorders.

She confirmed on her Twitter that it was a seizure.
