What Causes Epilepsy? Genetic Factors ... Information Resources Introduction Few experiences match the drama of a convulsive seizure. A person having a severe seizure may cry out, fall to the floor unconscious, twitch or move uncontrollably, drool, or even lose bladder control. Within minutes, the attack is over, and the person regains consciousness but is exhausted and dazed. This is the image most people have when they hear the word epilepsy. However, this type of seizure—a generalized tonic-clonic seizure*—is only one kind of epilepsy. There are many other kinds, each with a different set of symptoms.

Get Five DVDs for $.49 each. Join now. Tell me when this page is updated EPILEPSY: 'I HAVE A NEW SON' By William A. McGarey, M.D. A dramatic story evolved recently at the A.R.E. Clinic when a 37-year-old manafflicted with epilepsysaw his life changing for the better in only four weeks. It not only involved a degree of physical healing, but he came out of a 20-year drug-induced fog and regained much of the clarity of thinking and awareness that characterized him as a teenager. When Tommy (not his real name) arrived, he was under the influence of some 26 medications daily, some listed as having dangerous side effects. His brain function was so low, it would take him 10 to 15 seconds to answer a simple question, and his mother said he acted more like a "zombie" than the brilliant young man he had been. He was not only taking 300 mg. of Dilantin each day, and 2 mg. of perphenazine three times daily, but he had been placed on 14 Depakote tablets a day, each 250 mg. Perphenazine is used to treat anxiety and depression, the others to control seizures. His doctors apparently were most interested in controlling seizures, but even at that level of medication, the young man still had seizures periodically. In the Physician's Desk Reference , there is a warning (emphasized by being boxed in) dealing with Depakote that says in part: "Hepatic [liver] failure resulting in fatalities has occurred in patients receiving valproic acid and its derivatives . . . experience has indicated that the incidence of fatal hepatotoxicity decreases considerably in progressively older patient groups. These incidents usually have occurred during the first six months of treatment." In fact, Tommy already had abnormal liver function tests even though he had been on Depakote only a short time.

This article submitted by Mdavis@hpb.hwc.ca on 10/13/95. Does anyone know if there is a correlation between epilepsy and sleep disorders (such as narcolepsy or sleep apnea). My 12 year old daughter has been recently diagnosed with "primary absence seizures". She also has a rare form of "sleep apnea" which is treated with bi-level nasal mask ventilation. We have correlated her epilepsy attacks to every 90 minutes which suggests a REM sleep disorder.

35. Epilepsy-Down Syndrome Foundation Research into the dual diagnoses of Down syndrome and epilepsy. Emphasizes nutritional and nonmedical interventions. http://members.aol.com/dsepilepsy/org.htm

Down Syndrome-Epilepsy Foundation A better vision The Down Syndrome-Epilepsy Foundation (DSEF) is a part of the non-profit Center for Natural Health Research and is devoted to looking into the best, natural, methods to help those who have both Down syndrome (trisomy 21) and various forms of epilepsy (including Lennox-Gastaut syndrome). These methods include clinical nutrition, naturopathy, manipulative techniques, exercise, and other natural methods intended to improve the quality of life for those with Down syndrome who also suffer with seizures. The Down Syndrome-Epilepsy Foundation is directed up by Robert J. Thiel, Ph.D., N.M.D. . Dr. Thiel is not a medical doctor. He is a doctor of nutrition (Ph.D. nutrition science) and a doctor of naturopathic medicine (N.M.D.). Dr. Thiel believes that DSEF has a better vision for those with both disorders. Why? Because he believes that natural is better. Because he believes that many health professionals and therapists have expectations for the disabled that are too low. Because he believes combining nutrition, exercise, and parental motivation results in better outcomes. Because he believes that science and common-sense show that the combination of natural interventions is the most logical to pursue. Because he has met with many of the so-called experts and researchers in this field and found many of their approaches lacking. He does not believe that he, nor DSEF, have all the answers, but does believe that in many respects, DSEF is at the forefront for practical research to benefit those with both Down syndrome and epilepsy.

The only such organization wholly dedicated to the welfare of people with epilepsy, our mission is simple to work for children and adults affected by seizures through research, education, advocacy and service. http://www.epilepsyfoundation.org

About Us Answer Place Research Advocacy ... Marketplace Epilepsy: sometimes called a seizure disorder, is a chronic medical condition produced by temporary changes in the electrical function of the brain, causing seizures which affect awareness, movement, or sensation. The Epilepsy Foundation will ensure that people with seizures are able to participate in all life experiences; and will prevent, control and cure epilepsy through research, education, advocacy and services. Inside... SUDEP: The Silent Issue It doesn't happen often. It's hard to know the risk. It's not a subject people want to dwell on. But the fact is, epilepsy is sometimes a fatal disorder. What is a Seizure? There are many different types of seizures. People may experience just one type or more than one. The Answer Place discusses types of seizures, treatment options, and first aid. Vagus Nerve Stimulation Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a unique surgical treatment. An implanted device prevents or interrupts seizures by sending small pulses of electrical energy to a large nerve in the neck. Medicines for Epilepsy Seizure-prevention often involves medications. This Answer Place feature lets you look up information on specific anti-epilepsy drugs (AEDs).
