Once you know and understand your triggers, you definitely realize that the seizure you have this week may be
triggered by something altogether different. Then again too it can be that for this particular seizure you
need several triggers to set it into motion. It depends where abouts your seizure threshold is at. I can
have a seizure today by just going into a store and the lighting effect and hassle and bustle, tomorrows
seizure can be triggered by something altogether different.
For different people different things and each seizure different.

HI Laura,
I just wanted to say that possible triggers are not triggers for all
people. If you suspect that certain foods or additives are triggers
for you, test them by eliminating one at a time for a period and
seeing what happens. The length of time necessary is partly dependent
on how frequently you normally have seizures. For example, if you
normally have several seizures a day, you will be able to tell more
quickly than if you usually only have a seizure a week or a couple in
a month. If you are not sure which foods or additives to test, keep a
food/seizure diary to see if you notice any patterns.
Food and food additives are not triggers for everyone, so I don't
think it's warranted for everyone to do this. You probably have a
better idea of what triggers you have than anyone else can.
Best wishes,
Tammy
