My dog had a seizure

Last Thursday. We took him to the animal hospital. They kept him 3 nights for tests and we finally got him home yesterday. The vet said it's idiopathic epilepsy.
The only thing is now he's acting so differently. It's like he hardly recognizes us. He's not really responding to his name or any of the words he used to know. It's very upsetting to me and DH. We just want him to be back to himself. Chat Icon Does anyone know what might be causing this?
Prayers and hugs much appreciated!!

This is the same with my dog. I would absolutely call the vet and tell them about the changes in your dog.
