Re: [epilepsy] Re: use of herbs - Laura



Do you have any suggestions?  My son has Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome and is 5 yo.  He has only been sick 2 yrs.

If I was going to use herbs with my child, and they were also taking prescription medicines for their condition - I would want to seek out a naturopathic physician that would team together with my child's doctor or neurologist.

I think your doctors gave you good advice since seizures are a very tricky thing.

I am an adult, and very knowledgeble about herbs - and can tell what they are doing in my body. It is different with a child.

But I also feel diet is extremely important and can have bad results if wrong foods are eaten. I don't know how much conventional doctors understand the effects of food and the brain.

Good luck!

Love,
Jnanda
