Kelly Osbourne banned from driving after seizure
Kelly Osbourne has been banned from driving after suffering a seizure earlier this year.
The 28-year-old television personality had the seizure while shooting E!'s Fashion Police in March 2013.
She was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital, where she was held for several days by doctors as they tried to find the cause of the episode.
In an interview with the UK's Hello magazine, Osbourne revealed that she has started taking precautionary medication for her seizures.
Doctors have also told her that she can no longer drive, due to fears of a possible relapse.
The recently-engaged Osbourne explained: "I don't know if I'm epileptic or not - it's a waiting game right now. It's scary and confusing.
"I'm hoping it was just a stress-induced seizure, but I have to be on anti-seizure medication for a year and I can't drive in case I have another episode.
"Not knowing what caused it is the worst thing. There's a chance it won't happen again and I hope it doesn't, though I don't remember it."
Kelly Osbourne's brother Jack was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis last year.

On Monday, her mother told US show The Talk that Kelly was doing fine, but doctors had not been able to pinpoint why the seizure occurred.
"After the show, I’m gonna go and pick her up, give her a good smack," she joked.
However the seizure, which was caught on camera, is not thought to be a sign of a serious underlying problem.
"(Kelly) has been given a clean bill of health by her doctor," a spokesman told told E! News.
"Doctors ran numerous tests and determined that this was most likely a one-time episode of which there are no conclusive results.
"She is looking forward to returning to Fashion Police this week and getting back to business and life as usual."
Last week, Osbourne tweeted a picture from her hospital bed and thanked fans for their concern.
Osbourne stars on the weekly fashion critique programme with comedienne Joan Rivers and E! network host Giuliana Rancic.

Kelly Osbourne Reveals Dad Ozzy OD'd While Cancer-Stricken Mom Sharon Was Having a Seizure
Kelly Osbourne was born into celebrity, but her life has often been terrifying instead of enviable. In her upcoming memoir, There Is No F*cking Secret: Letters From a Badass Bitch, Osbourne recounts the horrifying day when her mother had a seizure and her dad overdosed.
“[One night] Mum had a seizure,” Kelly writes. “I finally called for an ambulance, and together with the idiot nurse, we got Mum stabilized.”
At the time in 2002, Sharon Osbourne was fighting stage-three colorectal cancer. According to the book, when “Crazy Train” singer Ozzy initially learned about his wife’s diagnosis he went “insane” and turned to drugs to cope. So, on the night of the seizure, Kelly admits that she was terrified of his reaction.
“I had reason to be scared,” she writes. “Dad was there in his boxers, and I watched him scoop his hand into a bowl of pills, swallow a handful of something, and then wash it down with vodka, like it was water and he was dying of thirst.”
Soon they were all in the ambulance.
“[Dad] leaned over to and put his hand out and see if Mum was breathing,” writes Kelly. “Then he passed out with his hand over her mouth, and it looked like he was trying to kill her.”
According to his daughter, the EMTs eventually got him off Sharon and wanted to call the police.
“I was sobbing and shaking, scared out of my mind,” she recalls, “and the EMTs took pity on me and decided not to call the police, but said that they were rushing Dad into detox as soon as we got to the hospital.”
In There IsNo F*cking Secret, Kelly describes running between the two hospital rooms. Her mother eventually recovered from the seizure and the colorectal cancer, only to have a double mastectomy in 2012, when she learned she was at risk of breast cancer.
Ozzy’s path has been just as difficult. Since the night in the hospital when he was “treated for a drug overdose and
