Epilepsy - Digest Number 952

[Soroush Ebrahimi]

Dear Shannon

If you are happy with your choice of the remedy. HANG IN THERE!

The patient's system has been affected by her hospitalisation and the
continuous habit of the allopaths to increase/decrease seizure controlling
drugs in large steps.

I have seen it where someone's drugs were increase by 400% inside a week!!
(It took 6 months + to recover from it)

The steps need to be as small a change as possible so that we do not go
through swings.

It must be understood that people can die from seizures so the patient needs
to be monitored but eventually your remedy will take over the case.

Also if the choice of her medication is not correct, you have a maintaining
cause. A lot of these medications do cause seizures in themselves anyway!

Good luck
Soroush

Thanks Soroush,
We'll keep watching and waiting...
She actually hasn't had a *lot* of drugs -- only since a few months ago, and
in small doses because she does not tolerate drugs well. But perhaps for
her that's the same as "a lot of drugs"...

Best,
Shannon
