Hello,
the medication is able to control the epilepsy is a very good sign. The need is to continue in the follow up and take the medicines regularly. Unfortunately you have not mentioned the kind of epilepsy he has been diagnosed with. The treatment depends upon the kind / classification of epilepsy which is based on clinical, eeg and genetic profile etc. I suggest you follow up with the neurologist and clarify the dosage and be under follow up. Switching to homeopathic treatment is not a go...more

Hi
as the mri and eega reports are normal it is less likely a seizure activity. Is it a single episode of the loss of consciousness or the multiple episodes? If multiple and frequent need further evaluation.

My son had seizures after his birth for 3 times between 1 month to 6 months and doctor prescribed gardenal and calcium syrup and advised to continue for 3 years morning and evening. After 3 years we stopped medicine and he didn't get any seizures for almost five and half years but all of a sudden recently he got one in the month of april and we went to Dr. and he said it was because of fever not to worry but again in the month of aug he got seizures again and this time we changed Dr. and he took mri of brain and in report it is mentioned suggestive of mesial temporal sclerosis. Eeg we tried many times but my son didn't allow to do he starts crying. His development is very slow still 6 years of age but speech and learning issue. Dr. has advised following medicine for brain development and seizures: neuciti plus nicerbium attentrol lacosam pls advise about the treatment and his overall growth. Why is he so slow in development of we compare him to other 6 year child.

Hello,
the slowness of the child is due to developmental delay either due to hypoxia or inherent brain formation. As you. Have not mentioned any details about his behaviour its difficult to pin point the cause of slow development, but I feel that medicines may not help him and I will tell you why.
Of course he does require lacosam in correct dosage to control his seizures so that he does not have recurrent seizures.
Frankly personally I feel that neuciti plus and nicerbium are not go...more

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
You should see a doctor if you think you may have eye bleeding. Most eye bleeding is harmless and caused by a small broken blood vessel in the outer part of the eye. The cause of eye bleeding isn't always known. Eye bleeding in the pupil and iris, known as hyphema, is rare but may be more serious.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

A person is diagnosed with epilepsy when they have had two or more seizures. A seizure is a short change in normal brain activity.

Hello,
I presume you are doing well with clobazam 10 mg at night. Pls do not change the timing or the dose. There is no chance of it affecting your married life in the current doses. No need to worry about it.

Hello,
epilepsia partialis continua is a difficult thing to control and treat, sometimes the only answer is epilesy surgery. I would advise you to go to higher neurologic centre whichever is possible for you for further planning. Agar aap pahle gaye ho to wahin jaker dekho, iska ilaj mushkil hai shayad epilepsy surgery se theek ho sakta hai.
