Why do the so-called experts keep peddling the myth that medication is the first line of defence, and if that doesn’t control things, brain surgery is the next step? WRONG I have left TLE and was on meds for 4 years. I was still having occasional absence seizures so my neurologist said surgery was the next step. A medic friend of mine suggested a keto diet alternative. She reckoned that it should always be the first line of defence, even before meds. I tried keto and it worked, no more absence seizures. After 6 months I tapered off the meds, and have been seizure free for 8 years, except for one 2 week period when I sneaked pizza and biscuits back into my diet Try it, without dropping your meds at first. But be honest, no cheating or it’s pointless. It saved my life.

Wow. THANK YOU FOR THIS. You put my exact thoughts that i have had for years since i was diagnosed into words. I do not speak to my sister anymore because my neurologist mentioned i would need brain surgery, so she told me to go get it and never talked to me again. Then i started the keto diet, got more sleep, even changed medications and now i am better than ever. Wild.

I've had right temporal lobe epilepsy for 50 yrs. and I had surgery done to reduce the seizures and this is when the Drs. found that the right hippocampus had shrunk and become hard from so many seizures over the yrs. It was removed along with 75% of the right temporal lobe and my memory is much better today than it was before the surgery.

Im currently being evaluated to see if surgery is a possibility for me, have had temp lobe epilepsy for almost 30yrs since i was 10yrs old. Strange enough, the doctors that im under here in the UK are at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London, which is linked with the UCL where this presentation is taking place lol

@@kf8575 Ask your neurosurgeon about getting gamma knife surgery done. It's a same day surgery unless you receive to much radiation. There's no knife involved just high frequency radio waves that wipe out the damage. I wish you the best of luck.

Here’s a potential cure for IPF. The fibrosis is likely caused over several years as the immune system continually repairs lung inflammation caused by large glucose fluctuations resulting from Metabolic Syndrome or Type 2 Diabetes. To cure IPF you have to cure the Metabolic Syndrome or Type 2 Diabetes. They can be cured via a Ketogenic Diet combined with Intermittent Fasting. First step, get your Hemoglobin A1c checked, keep it less than 5.0 if possible.
