my son did well for about 2 weeeks into the diet. then it gradually got worse.
Never as bad as before. time or bad. His drop sez. he never had again which was
an every day thing.
his sez slowly started getting better then was about 3 a week and stayed that
way. since the beginning of the diet it was 10 months and chris became sez. and
med free for almost a year.
his sez now are no longer than 30-45 seconds and are no where near as strong.
hang in there things will change let her body and mind figure out whats going
for a while before you start getting worried. chris has been on the diet 2.8
years and we may be weining him off starting in feb. its a long road but well
worth it.

Melissa, when my granddaughter Ella went on the diet she had six months free of
seizures, she was 4 years old when she started the diet, but before that we
weaned her off all meds, when the seizures came back they were not so severe,
and they did not last so long, she is 8 now and still has seizures, but at least
she does`nt have to put up with side affects from drugs. the seizures she had
before the diet could last up to 3 hours in status, and she would end up in the
hospital. Ella is developmentally delayed because of the lengthy seizures on
meds, with the help of an ABA intervention in her education, she is now at
mainstream school with an assistant, and can say quite a few words, she is also
quite slight for her age. Marie.

My daughter has been on the Keto diet for a few months
now. At first it really looked like the answer to her
seizures.(she went from 15 to 20 seizures a day to 0
to 5 a day in 5 weeks) But now we are starting to see
an increase of seizures. We looked at all the meals
plans, made a change, looked at meds, changed to Milk
of Mag, and now I'm not sure where to go. All her labs
are good. She is on Depakote and its in range. Her
weight is held steady at 44.6 pounds. (she is a little
thing at 10 years old) She is as active as ever,
sleeping well and babbling. So if anyone has any
suggestions please let me know. We have been working
with the doctor and all.

Thanks

Melissa
