[@AlvarangaBH]

I pray that you have a full recovery, same thing happened to me, I'm 44 and mine started about 7yrs ago out the blue, I broke my nose, my jaw.. but the worst part is I lost my son cause it was only me and him living and I was having a seizure one night and he said I was choking him and of course the government stepped in and took him, which of course I prefer that than having him home and hurting him.....but it's hard and I miss my baby alot

[@Dimandcats]

Thank you for all you do and the research all of you are involved in. If you haven’t discussed it or found out already can you find out and explain why small seizures cause such an emotional imbalance afterwards? The seizure itself is scary but not I’m struggling more with how to stay calm after it’s gone when my emotions feel like I have no control almost worse than a panic attack. I am so thankful for people out there like you. Words can’t describe how much of a difference you make. It’s hard enough but people like you are our light in this dark tunnel helping us.

Your enthusiasm for improving the quality of life for those with epilepsy, including PNES, is inspiring Doctor. I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico where we have a teaching hospital at the University of New Mexico. And their neurology department is terrible, in all honesty. They never provided the results of my EEG results to my neurologist following a suspected hemiplegic migraine which included a seizure. The EEG was in 2022!!

My son is 23 and continues to have a full onset seizure about once every 45 days. His only treatment has been Keppra. He has been diagnosed with JM eat in the past and now it has turned to progressive. Watt particular treatment that you mentioned should we be following? By the way, I can’t thank you enough for such an informative video you gave us parents hope!

[@AliciaGuitar]

I have JME and diet and sleep is VERY important. I just found out i have a gene variation that causes me to be sensitive to glutamates. I increased salts and decrease my glutamates by limiting high glutamate foods like aged cheese and processed foods. You can't avoid glutamates altogether, but you can lower your intake of particularly high foods. Due to my particular gene i also have to add lots of salt to my diet, but always check with your dr before trying that. Keppra did not help me tho i cant remember if it was ineffective or had bad side effects. My dr has me on a very low dose of clobazam. Appearantly JME gets easier to treat as you age tho doesnt go away completely. My pharmacy sends my meds in dose paks to help me be diligent in taking my doses on time. I also found GABA related medications can aggravate my seizures. This includes gabapentin and magnolia bark. If your son is on a GABA med you should talk to your dr about the possibility it could be triggering seizures and consider changing meds. I hope these tips help! My 20s were rough but now im 43 and havent had a seizure in over a year. Keep trying! It can get better i promise!

My son has epilepsy however the keto diet would not work as he is already skinny 49 kilos at 27 years of age. As we know the keto diet is based around weight loss and the benefits of epilepsy are just an extra benefit.

Last week, I missed a dose of Zonisamide one night and had a seizure the next day, which happens every time I do. 2 days ago, I looked at a high refresh rate monitor, which I thought would be good for me, but instead I had a seizure the next morning. I don’t know if it’s because of daily coffee, looking at the monitor for 30 minutes the night before, or stressed about war in Israel. Maybe all?

Hi . I have done with all the scans Pet sacn , Mri , video eeg. The report of MRI and pet scan were normal but still I am suffering with seizures. Dr. Tells us that moment was on both side of the brain and it can be also because of that I'm a pre mature child. Is it the reason?

My grandson is 2 years old and Neurologist is recommending TPO surgery where the temporal, parietal, & occipital lobes are detached from the brain. They said this surgery will keep him from having seizures. Im not convinced and feel the surgery is not the best solution.
