I would suggest you post your daughters stats (height, weight, calories, protien
per day, ratio) both here and on the other keto list (which has a lot more
members). Somebody might see something interesting. Also has she gained her or
lost weight or grown taller since starting. Plot where she was at diet
initiation and where she is now on a growth chart. Could give you some clues re:
calories. Problem is you have a growing body so you can't always just leave
things the same
Do you have any problems with her not wanting to eat? Just wondering because the
depakote with the diet can do that.
But as someone else said, seizures can sometimes show before the first sign of
an illness.
Good luck
