I started having Grand Mal seizures in my early 20's and the doctors could not determine what was causing them. I even ended up having brain surgery to remove a large cyst they had found on my temporal lobe, however, the seizures returned shortly after the surgery. Now I was in complete desperation mode, losing hope and tired of feeling like a zombie with all the sedative drugs I was being prescribed. I then realized that God was the only one who could help me and after praying for about 8 months or so, his answer came to me at a 711 convenience store early in morning. I had purchased a coffee and added a non-dairy creamer to it and after only a couple of sips it started to give me my usual pre-seizure warning signal, which was a weird deja vu feeling. I then realized that it had to be something in that creamer since coffee itself had never given me any problems. It was the preservatives in the creamer(since it was non-dairy it required something to preserve it). So, long story short, I no longer eat anything with food preservatives, take no medication of any kind and 30 years later I am still seizure free! I thank God every day for giving me this insight because when I told my medical doctors about my discovery all of them ridiculed me and said that the acids in my stomach would destroy the preservatives. This was apparently not the case and later through my research on food preservatives I also found out that most of them are even carcinogenic. I hope this can possibly help at least one person out there as I know the horrible situation it is to have seizures.
what i've learned from this video: 1- if it's the first seizure to the patient no treatment is needed 2-if there's history of previous seizures, ask the patient whether he's taking his medications or not, are the seizures getting worse , are the seizures lasting longer and if there's any evident that would cause seizure as infection 3- ask the patient for basic labs as serum electrolytes, glucose level, CBC, magnesium, LFTs and toxicology 3- ask for ECG 4- once metabolic and toxic causes are ruled out ask for CT and MRI 5- once imaging has ruled out space occupying lesion ask lumbar puncture 6- last thing do EEG 7- if the patient had grand mal seizure the first line of choice in treatment is sodium valproate , the second line of treatment is topiramate and lamotigine 8- dose of sodium valproate is 10mgkg/day to 60mgkg/day in 2-3 divided doses 9- myoclonic or atomic seizures , valproic acid is the treatment of choice
Food preservatives were the cause of my seizures, even though my doctors told me it wasn't possible due to stomach acids breaking them down. However, this was not the case because once I stopped eating preservatives, my seizures stopped. Also, before discovering that preservatives were the problem, I even went through brain surgery to remove a cyst on my temporal lobe that they thought were causing the seizures, but the seizures returned shortly after the surgery! I thank God everyday for answering my prayers and helping me realize that preservatives were the cause.

Dear Doctor! I really appreciate your detailed explanation about epilepsy. Since 2021 I became epilepsy patient but no doctor told even 5% details like you. I'm just suddenly become unconscious and I fall down for 10 to 20 min. After I met a doctor I did EGG and many other tests which shows normal. Then just told me I've epilepsy and ordered for levetiracetam which made my seizure much worse. Then the doc. change the tablet to lamotrigin and ergenyl witch helped me to stay for a few months without a seizure. But still I know nothing about epilepsy details until now I see your video. I wish if I can get your contact email/address to know if you have own clinic and where. Sincerely, Sami

It all started after using Betaloc as my cardiologist suggested me to have it for my palpitations. I was getting Brain zaps during sleep after taking Betaloc.

Very good explanation doctor . Can you explain how can we control naturally eclipsy sezuires..

Again i got seizure due to loud sound disturbance again doctor as adviced me to take tab lacosamide 100mg at night 50mg at morning. I have doubt due to sound the seizure will come why for wat purpose pls reply sir
Patient is asked to stay awake for longer duration than his or her normal sleep. Then eeg is performed. Sleep deprivation induces stress on brain and if there is underlying epileptic activity in brain cells it becomes evident.
Sir can i talk to you personally it will be your most kindness because i am suffering from tonic seizures since the age of 6 yrs n from that day to the age 24 i am still on medications it will be your kindness if you gave me some time to explain my problem personally to you plzz

Dear sir ,
Please help I am also struggling from seizure request your help
Alhamdulillah; finally I got the difference between tonic clonic and myoclonic seizures
I watched many videos but only this video clears my confusion about types of seizures.
Thank you very much Sir 🙏 for a deep understanding concepts of seizures and it's types or medicine given for epilepsy.
what i've learned from this video:
1- if it's the first seizure to the patient no treatment is needed
2-if there's history of previous seizures, ask the patient whether he's taking his medications or not, are the seizures getting worse , are the seizures lasting longer and if there's any evident that would cause seizure as infection
3- ask the patient for basic labs as serum electrolytes, glucose level, CBC, magnesium, LFTs and toxicology
3- ask for ECG
4- once metabolic and toxic causes are ruled out ask for CT and MRI
5- once imaging has ruled out space occupying lesion ask lumbar puncture
6- last thing do EEG
7- if the patient had grand mal seizure the first line of choice in treatment is sodium valproate , the second line of treatment is topiramate and lamotigine
8- dose of sodium valproate is 10mgkg/day to 60mgkg/day in 2-3 divided doses
9- myoclonic or atomic seizures , valproic acid is the treatment of choice
Can I get your number pls
i am a physician, i appreciate your videos........keep going
Finally i understand the difference tnk u sir ❤
