[epilepsy] Re: Tonic-clonic; generalized seizures

 

I used to get tremors in my hands especially when I was eating and using a fork and knife and also when I would type on the computer. You have described classic symptoms of magnesium deficiency. Which is not surprising, at least in my perception. YOu need to get your magnesium levels up - that would stop the cramps, and put transdermal magnesium on the inside of your wrists and over the top of your hands. You do not need to stop taking your drugs to use transdermal magnesium.

It is almost like a Parkinson type tremors.( the lack of better way to explain it) I also have some cramps in my legs occas. Bananas seem to help,K deficiency could be cause. But the good news NO seizure in about 5 weeks now, have had some aureas so some activities are happening but no convulsions, confusion,and all that go with it. How have you been lately?
