I've been told the same thing as Sarah. And before I was told, I took cold meds that made me feel really bad, dizzy and like I was going to have seizures.

I find this really interesting because that is what I have read and yet on two different occasions I have been advised by my neurologist to take Benadryl. Once to help me sleep and once because I was sick. I was taking it quite regularly to help me sleep and during that period of time had quite a few seizures. Then I researched it online, stopped taking it, and haven't had another seizure.
