Earlier Last year I was diagnosed with CANCER in 2019 and I have tried everything I could to heal myself, but it was all to no avail, until I saw a post on a health forum about a herbalist preparing herbal medicines to cure everything type of diseases. including CANCER, at first I doubted it was real, but decided to give it a try, when I contacted this herbalist through his email and he prepared me a herbal cure for CANCER and sent it to me via the delivery service of UPS from the company, when I received this herbal cure. They gave me step by step instructions on how to apply it, when I applied it according to the instructions I was totally cured of this deadly disease within 5 months of use, I am now CANCER free, all thanks to Dr. PETER You can also contact this great herbalist for help by email: peteroare0@gmail.com or contact Dr. PETER through his whatsapp number: +2348161615389 He is also specialize in treating all kinds of diseases, VIRUS HERPES , HEPATITIS B, CANCER, BRAIN DISEASE, INFERTILITY, DIABETES EPILEPSY AND MORE ...... He will also be of help to you.

I was born with epilepsy and cerebral palsy. I have a twin brother, i was born first. My brother was born with no problems. I take phenytoin for my epilepsy, as a child I was on phenabarbatone, then at 14 i was put on Epilim 500mg. Which caused me to gain lots of weight. I went to live in Canada for a few years where I was taken off eperlim & switched to phenytoin. Which I still take today. As a child I had grand mal seizures, which doctors said I would grow out of. Which I did, but I now have petit mal. It' feels weird when I have it, i can hear all thats going on around me, but ppl and any noise, sound much louder, plus it feels like I'm floating on water. Before the seizure I get the smell like burnt toast. I can have a seizure at any time, night or day. Unpredictable. I feel a little confused when I come round, which lasts for a couple of minutes, then I'm back with you again. Usually a cup of tea helps me recover. I read a lot of blogs where people who shared their testimonies kept mentioning Anti-seizure Herbal medication. I searched for a website I just followed the email address of Doctor Patrick that was shared on these testimonies; I got lucky when I got a reply from Dr. Patrick. I followed his instruction, used Herbal Medicine in less than 2 months, I was already cure because of the changes I was seeing. Within a period of 5 months, I was cured totally forever. I went back to my neurologist, I was checked up and marked epilepsy free.

I've been searching for hours for a video like this. I'm not a scientist at all but when it comes to human biology, I have to know how everything works, and with epilepsy more so, since I have it. I'm moving onto a drug called Episenta at the moment. I don't suppose you know what that does to these receptors? Apparently it's the best drug around. Maybe it does multiples of these at once? That could be why they're slowly taking me off Lamotrigine and Levetiracetam.

How to know what medication is the right one? Are there specific types of seizures that go with specific medication?
@chicken-hb9zg3 жыл бұрын
I was diagnosed a little over a month ago, and was prescribed Lamotrigine. My neurologist told me they usually try Lamotrigine first as it has the least side effects. I'm on an online epilepsy group, most people seem to have Keppra and Lamotrigine is a close runner up, some people take both Lamotrigine and keppra. It doesn't seem to matter the type of seizure, the people in the group who report using Lamotrigine have all different types of seizures. I hope this helps answer your question.
@addhoc2563 жыл бұрын
@@chicken-hb9zg thanks for your answer! Diagnosed a month ago? Was it a shock or not? How did you find this online epilepsy forum? I was diagnosed a week ago and i slowly build up medication, they gave me an equivalent of Keppra i think. But only in a very low dosage that they know will not make a difference but they said if I build it up this slow then after 2 weeks i can double the dasage and i will have less side effects. But the neurologist only has 10 minutes and doesnt have time to discuss all my questions in detail to Im looking for a platform to discuss experiences in detail. I only have absenses and not always visually obvious seizures. So I have a lot of micro absenses and i was very surprized that was also called epilepsy. So now I have a lot of questions. What is daydreaming what is epilepsy. I have tons of mental diagnosis like add, daydreaming, dissociation, and an asymetric developped brain and emotional neglect (CEN). So now im wondering what is really neurological and what is mental. I dont expect all my mental health issues to be solved with a pill but we will see what happens next week after the pills kick in. If I know more about absenses and sideffects I can make the puzzle: what is what.These days are an emotional rollercoaster for me because everything i thought i knew is now maybe not true. I wish I had heard of absense epilepsy before. I'm now 50 and probably had it since i was 5. People dont know how to react when i tell them. They laughed at my clumsyness and absent mindedness and thought tiredness is what everyone has. If someone asked: how was your day? And I said: well i was unconsious this morning for hours and i have no idea why: people didnt react at all and just changed the subject. They thought I was exaggerating. Now they say: how can you have epilepsy all of a sudden why didnt you ever notice it? I just dont know what to say to people anymore i just avoid friends now im too angry. I cannot help but think: i told you ten times its just only now it has an official medical name you take me serious.

I think there's a mistake!!!! Lamotrigine acts on Na and Ca channel blocker not as glutamenergic neurotransmitter blocking
@SotonbrainhubUk18 жыл бұрын
+Almaliky Haider The video doesn't say that - it states that lamotrigine stops glutamate from being released, not that it is a direct anti-glutaminergic drug. By blocking voltage gated Na and Ca receptors on the pre-synaptic membrane lamotrigine stops glutamate from being released from the pre-synaptic terminal, thus the anti-epileptic action is ultimately to stop glutamate being released. Hope this helps
