Food-Triggered Siezures

Sun, 05/18/2008 - 14:10
So I have never found a trigger my siezures beyond them occuring around my period...but I think I might be on to something. Maybe even something that might give me the origin to my seizures- since they haven't found anything on my CT scans or MRI. I went out for Thai food this week and last to a specific place. I had a small siezure right after eating both times. The first time I didn't think much of it since I was on my period, but it was my only one that week (odd, I didn't have more that cycle) but the second time I looked at my plate suspiciously. I had crab rangoon both times, but I had it once before at this place and didn't react so *scratch*... However, I recalled the number of times in the past four years that my seziues began at the dinner table. Some of my worst ones began at the dinner table. Could I have an allergy to something? Why would I not be reacting to it more often outside the time of my period? Some minor research does pull up that allergies are stronger during menstration. Could I be more predisposed to a reaction then when my seizure threshhold is lower as is? I'm going to have to keep track of what I eat now. Does anyone else have anything similar to this, or heard of it? Is it a possibility?

Also the amount of sugar In

Also the amount of sugar In tons of fruits and vegetables is so inflammatory.   I have been keto for years and if I slip I will go right back to my seizure filled life.  Just had 1.5 hrs of complex partials last night for daring to eat gluten free pasta because of the corn.
