Seizures while sleeping~

Tracey,&nbsp;First and most important thing I want to say is that you have a ‘true friend’ [pen-pal] right here. Me.&nbsp;I have been on Lamictal since Sept 1997 and have bounced around on other AEDs with this. Just this past year, in mid-July 2004, I started the process of being weaned off of Depakote and slowly onto Keppra. Not real difference at controlling my seizures [simple partial/auras] at all, but my grand mal and complex partial seizures are still under control.&nbsp;Something new has come up though. Back in January this year of 2005, I did some more online searching for information with diet, digestion and epileptic seizures. I found some information, ordered &amp; received the treatment plan, and so far have only made a slight adjustment with by diet as to what particular foods &amp; liquids I consume at the same time. For example, instead of having milk &amp; cereal along with fruit and juice, I divide the two up. One morning just milk &amp; cereal, then the next morning just fruit and orange juice. This and a few other diet changes have lowered the amount of sps I was having, and when the sps do happen, they’re not a strong and/or last long. But there are other separate steps I need to do and my plans are to talk to my primary doctor and neurologist when I see them both next week, about this treatment plan.Found an update on one website just last week. Instead of there being over 2.5 million people in the United States who have epilepsy, like I posted in message #11 on this post topic, it’s now over <strong>2.8 million</strong>PwE in the US.Got any more questions or comments just to share with anyone here, please do so. Stick with us Tracey.Bruce <strong>J</strong>&nbsp;
