Vitamins and Herbs to control Epilepsy?!
Question: I have been an Epileptic for years and now at 28 years old I am beyond frustrated with Anti-Epileptic drugs. The medicine makes me sick and I feel run down. I have tried everything and even though I am under the care of a good Nuerologist it seems like I am only getting worse. I am afraid to tell anyone how I feel (especially my family, of course now after reading this some will know)because I dont want to sound like a cry baby but I feel like I am dying. There are days when the room just spins and there are days when I can not walk or talk like a normal person due to lack of motor skills.
I am desperate and wanting to turn toward vitamins and herbs as I have heard so many positive feedback from Epileptics who were out of control but after going all natural they are now doing great!
I am a full time College student with perfect grades so I am doing something with my life but I want my seizures under control.
If you know anything about these vitamins and herbs please share.

This makes me want to cry. I didn't know you were feeling his way. I think that going to vitamins and herbs is a great idea. I tried to google it for you, but ironically i clicked on a link that said : vitamins and herbs used to control epilepsy, and the link led me back to your question. I think if you talk to your neurologyst he may be able to suggest the correct vitamins or herbs to use, or he may be able to refer you to a holistic neurologyst or clinic that can help you. In the mean time, I am going to try and find something out for you. I have a friend who is into vitamin, herbs, enzymes, and natural cures, and so I will talk to her and see what she can tell me. I will aslo ask Dayna to look it up in her book. She has that Book they always advertise on tv about the natural cures that doctors keep secret. There may be a chapter regarding epilepsy. Until then, just know that you are sooooo loved and have people praying for you. I will get back to you on this soon. Hugs.
I just posted a lengthy response to your previous question so be sure to look at it OK
