Do I stay on this medication? Help please...

Sure can Kristi.&nbsp;IÂ’ve had epilepsy for 18 yrs now and still certain that something is triggering the seizures in my lower right side abdomen. After explaining what I felt for years, over and over to my doctors, they always say that those feelings are ‘aurasÂ’. I now know about auras. Well, with what IÂ’ve learned over the past years and with something I just found online early this month, IÂ’m wondering if my problem is ‘Abdominal EpilepsyÂ’. Also, if other people may have the same thing. HereÂ’s why. If people can have their szs starting with something triggering it, like flashing light, smells, audio, or even hot water on their heads, then would it be possible for something in a personÂ’s digestive tract to trigger a sz too?&nbsp;My szs most always occur around 6 hours after IÂ’ve eaten and with where they start at, I now strongly believe theyÂ’re being triggered within my digestive tract. HereÂ’s the website where I found information about abdominal epilepsy and suggest everyone to check it outÂ… <a href="http://www.meridianinstitute.com/abepilep.htm">www.meridianinstitute.com/abepilep.htm</a>&nbsp;For all that IÂ’ve gone though with neurological testing [many different AED combinations, EEGs, MRIs, CT, 24hr veeg, WADA, &amp; fEEG/brain mapping] and nothing more known about to help bring my szs to an end, IÂ’m going to do something myself, and so far for 2 ? months, this treatment plan seams to be working, because the frequency and strength of my simple partial szs / auras, have gone down. &nbsp;The only thing IÂ’ve done differently, so far, is with the diet. Not with what I eat, but with the particular items IÂ’m eating during each separate meal. For example, my morning breakfast. I usually have both milk and cereal, along with various fruits and orange juice, or other juices. The diet recommends NOT to eat milk AND fruits or juices, together for the whole meal. So now I rotate. One morning, just milk and cereal. The next morning fruits, juices and breading, like muffins, pancakes, and waffles. The diet also recommends eating much more veggies. So now I eat alot more salads. Also, avoid so much red meat. More details about the diet on this website <a href="http://www.cayce.com/caycebasicdiet.htm">www.cayce.com/caycebasicdiet.htm</a>&nbsp;Not only has this lowered my szs business, but also my cholesterol. Just found out about this in late February by having my blood test done and with the primary physician explaining to me about these results.&nbsp;There is much more still yet to be done within the treatment plan. Go to the website about their information of “OVERVIEW OF EPILEPSY”, and scroll done to notice the section titled “EDGAR CAYCE'S THERAPEUTIC MODEL”, which will talk about the hot castor oil and massage aiding to break up adhesions, etc. <a href="http://www.edgarcayce.org/health/database/chdata/data/prepil3a.html">www.edgarcayce.org/health/database/chdata/data/prepil3a.html</a>&nbsp;And, more details of that, via SPA&nbsp;PACKAGE – 4 located on this website <a href="http://www.edgarcayce.org/products/massage_therapies/spa_packages.asp">www.edgarcayce.org/products/massage_therapies/spa_packages.asp</a>&nbsp;I have made reservations and scheduled appointments to have this done next month. Hopefully this will be a stronger step forward for my sake, because I cannot do anything more at this time other than just antiepileptic drugs.&nbsp;If any one would like to email me directly, my address is at <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>. But, whenever you send me a message, add something in the subject line in relation to epilepsy or seizures, and which online support weÂ’re connected to. This one here being epilepsy.com&nbsp;I will try to keep everyone posted on my results with this epilepsy treatment plan.Bruce IJ
