Hi Steve
I am really strange in that department too. (smile) Sometimes different things that are really big triggers
for some I can take 24/7 and other times it makes you wonder. Certain oils can be bad for some people as
well. My hubby loves to buy this special aromatic bath bubbles but it is 'eucalyptus' based. I know that it
has been a trigger for me a few nights, other nights I can handle it .... oh how I love it and hard to stay
away from as so relaxing. Question is do I put in my bath tonight or stay away from...(smile)
sometimes tell if day is good that aok to use.
All breaks down to how your immune system is able to handle.

I've had epilepsy since 1975. In all those years I never noticed any type of trigger from foods! My triggers
I knew very very well. I was very light sensitive so everything in that area brought on seizures for me. As
well as stress and not enough sleep each day. Breathing hard usually brought on seizures for me also. So, I
knew when I was doing any of those things, LOOK OUT! Oh my gosh I can't tell you how many seizures I had
while playing tennis (big smile) over the years with so any different people. Sometimes they came, sometimes
they didn't. Its just when involved in one of those triggers, I knew very well that I was increasing the
chance of a seizure. But hey, I learned my seizures come, my seizures go as I live my normal life (smile)!
Take care, keep a smile on your face!
