Re: [epilepsy] Other Head Problems

2012-02-11T19:32:00.000-08:00

Short answer, yes it does.

Long answer. Since the same neurons that give us the ability to think
also transmit the seizures through our brain, the process is damaged by
repetitive seizures. This effect is worse the more seizures you have,
the number of seizures you have over a short period of time, and how
long they go uncontrolled. A neuro psych test is a very very detailed
test that helps determine what areas of the brain are being affected by
the seizures. If you have surgery for seizures the test is repeated
after surgery to see what affect the surgery has as well.

There is another factor to consider, and that is what type, and how
much, epileptic medication you are on. Some AED's are known to affect
thinking patterns, short term memory, concentration, and such. Because
these meds work on the neurons in the brain to stop the seizures, they
also change the way the neurons work together in our thought processes.

As far as getting the lost ability back. There is a possibility if the
reductions being caused by current seizures. However, here's the bad
news, some of the damage is permanent. That being said, if it is the
meds that are causing at least some it, then changing meds, reducing
meds, will give some of that back.

I will use myself as an example. Before I had any seizures my IQ was
above 130. When I had my first neuro psych test a few months before
surgery it was 124. After surgery that was reduced to 110, yeah that
sucked. I just had another test 2 weeks ago, nearly 4 years post op,
off topamax and on much less trileptal. My new score is 127. This
means that I got back most of what I lost from the seizures and surgery.

Here's the kicker. IQ is a measurement of ability to learn, and is
affected by both innate ability and environment. The higher your IQ the
more likely you are going to be to adapt to changes in the way you
learn. You are more likely to be able to find new ways to learn, find a
new learning style, and doing well with that.

So to sum up. Yes, seizures cause a diminished IQ, and it is not
uncommon for that to be more profound the longer someone goes
uncontrolled, and with a greater number of seizures. Yet, it is
possible to "relearn how to learn", thereby increasing an IQ again.

Honestly, I was very shocked by the results of my latest test. An IQ is
also broken down into multiple learning areas. For me, math is the area
I regained little of what I had lost. Yet, because I was able to
relearn how to learn, my verbal skills and problem solving ability had
greater increases.

Has anyone experienced slow term memory problems and other learning/coordination problems? I got my neuro psych test back and it showed, basically, that I was an uncoordinated moron! I was very mad at the doctor, as...he was critical of my written communication skills; that has always been my strongest asset! He expected me to write a short paragraph on a cartoon w/in 5 minutes with him watching me! Then he has the nerve to say that my written communication skills were low! I friggin write for a living, at least in my head hunting business! MORON! I was in English honors in HS. Do seizures take away some of your intelligence?

IMO.....this is the only place where I feel safe to vent as no one understands. Even my husband of 20 yrs does not totally understand and if I have an episode or a bad dizzy spell/head ache he cannot relate as he thinks I'm over reacting. I, too, am ashamed and embarrased, even though I get the drunk thing where I am "out of it" and have staring spells and then just speak like I'm drunk for the entire day. But...you have serious seizures that cannot always be under your control and yes....fatigue, stress, sound, lights....all trigger seizures...in all of us!

R U seeing a therapist? I find that theraputic talking to someone once/twice per month, plus I'm on Paxil for OCD and anxiety.

Re: [epilepsy] its erin let me tell you about my seizures

2012-02-11T11:00:00.001-08:00

Hi Erin,

First, I LOVE Culver's! But, redeterminations are stressful--I help people with them here in Massachusetts and see that everyday.

Don't beat yourself up though--I just went 6 months seizure-free (and that never happens!), and last weekend had a seizure while on the phone with my sister. While it's not a gran-mal, I was still pretty sad about it. But, it's just a part of life. At least you were with your boyfriend, and not by yourself at culver's.

So now you know stress is a trigger--which it is for all of us. Now you have to figure out how to lower stress, whether that's working out, meditation, etc...

[Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Georgian Kidney Bean Stew With Herbs and Walnuts (Lobio Nigvzit) - 35g Carbs, 12

2012-02-11T08:17:00.001-08:00

Georgian Kidney Bean Stew With Herbs and Walnuts (Lobio Nigvzit) - 35g Carbs, 12g Fiber, 5g Sugar

From: The Washington Post, February 7, 2012
From: Washington food writer and blogger Jenny Holm.

Traditionally, this stew is served with corn cakes.

Ground fenugreek can be found in the international aisle of large
supermarkets and at Indian groceries.

MAKE AHEAD: The sweet, sour and herbal flavors of this dish meld
with time, so the stew is best served the next day, or at least
6 to 8 hours after it has been made. Reheat over medium-low heat.

Cuisine: Eastern European
Course: Soup
Features: Make-Ahead Recipes, Meatless, Vegan
Makes about: 9 cups
Servings: 8

1 lb dried red kidney beans, picked over
5 cups water
2 medium (5 1/2 oz total) carrots, finely chopped
2 Tbsp neutral-tasting vegetable oil, such as canola,
sunflower or grapeseed
2 medium (6 to 8 oz each) yellow onions, finely chopped (2 cups)
1 cup walnut halves or pieces, finely ground
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup finely chopped cilantro
1/2 cup finely chopped mixed herbs, such as flat-leaf parsley, dill,
basil, celery greens and/or summer savory
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp ground coriander, or to taste
1 tsp ground fenugreek, or to taste (see headnote)
2 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper, or to taste

Place the dried beans in a deep bowl and cover with at least 3 inches
of water. Soak overnight.

Drain the beans, placing them in a large pot with the 5 cups of water.
Add the carrots; bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat
to medium and cook (uncovered) for 25 minutes or until the beans have
softened but are still chewy.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the
onions and stir to coat, then cook for 5 to 7 minutes, until softened
but not browned. Transfer to the bean pot and stir to incorporate. Add
the ground walnuts, garlic, half of the cilantro and half of the mixed
herbs, the vinegar, coriander, fenugreek, salt and cayenne pepper; mix
well. Cover and cook for 20 to 30 minutes or until the beans are tender.

Stir in the remaining cilantro and mixed herbs. Taste, and adjust the
seasoning as needed. Remove from the heat.

Divide among individual bowls, or, for best flavor, transfer to a
container, cool, cover and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours or overnight.
Reheat over medium-low heat; taste, and adjust the seasoning before
serving.

[Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Potato Pancetta and Brussels Sprout Saute - 21g Carbs, 3g Fiber, 2g Sugar

2012-02-11T04:54:00.001-08:00

Potato Pancetta and Brussels Sprout Saute - 21g Carbs, 3g Fiber, 2g Sugar

From: The Washington Post, February 8, 2012
Recipe Source: From Nourish columnist Stephanie Witt Sedgwick

I'm determined to get more people to love Brussels sprouts. In pursuit
of that goal, I've teamed them here with potatoes and pancetta. It's a
terrific combination that brings character to the braised potatoes. The
sprouts are shredded, which -- in addition to shortening the cooking
time -- keeps them fresh-tasting and free of any association with cabbage.

MAKE AHEAD: The cooking method here is simple, but it does take time to
cut up the potatoes and shred the Brussels sprouts. You can prep both
vegetables up to a day in advance. Cover the shredded sprouts tightly
with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. The potatoes can
be peeled and cubed, then stored, covered in water, in the refrigerator.
Course: Side Dish
Features: Healthy
Makes about ten 3/4-cup servings

1 Tbsp olive oil
2 oz pancetta, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 small onion (4 oz), finely chopped (3/4 cup)
2 lb red-skinned potatoes, peeled and cut into approximately 3/4-inch
cubes (5 cups)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup homemade or no-salt-added chicken broth
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed, cut in half and then into thin slices

Heat the oil in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-high heat. Add
the pancetta; cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the meat browns lightly.
Stir in the onion; reduce the heat to medium and cook for 3 to 4 minutes,
until the onion softens.

Add the potatoes; season with salt and pepper to taste, and toss to
combine. Pour in the broth. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook
until the broth just starts to boil. Cover the skillet or saute pan and
reduce the heat so the broth maintains a low boil. Cook for 15 to
20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.

Uncover; increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced Brussels
sprouts. Cook, tossing gently, for 3 minutes, until the sprouts are
just tender and almost all of the broth has evaporated. Remove from
the heat.

Taste, and adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve warm.

oh, I see! I wonder what would happen if you only ate the greens / veg you can tolerate for a week - just those foods alone - I imagine getting those nutrients into your cells quickly would heal you faster. If you need more info do a search on Dan McDonald (liferegenerator) on youtube. He's helped so many people with these kinds of things. Best wishes to you! Keep us posted! XO

Well I have what is called Oral Allergy Syndrome. I actually allergic to tree and weed pollen, but the pollens protein chains are similar to the fruit or veggies protein chains. So when I eat the fruit or veggie my body thinks I'm eating the pollen.

My reactions are anywhere from something like eczema to something more severe like severe stomach pain that lasts for 6-7 hours. It varies and it seems to change all the time.

I react to oranges just the smallest amount triggers the severe stomach pain so I avoid lemons, lime, and grapefruit too. I've been drinking two drinks with frozen cranberries and cucumbers and various fruits. I eat chard and mustard greens I haven't bought kale though in awhile. Most of my veggies have to be cooked or I get sick to my stomach or get the severe pain. My fruit has to be frozen, or peeled or frozen.

I'm wishing you a speedy recovery. The absolute fastest way that I heal is by drinking green juices. I know it isn't everyone's cup of tea but when I am ill or having severe allergic skin reactions I drink juices made from celery, cucumber, carrot, ginger and lemon. I also mix it up with kale, chard, etc.

You said your biggest problem is with fruit / veg. I understand how fruit can mess with your blood sugar, etc, but what do the green veg do to you?

Now for those that don't know this surgery takes several months and close to a year for everything inside to be healed up. You have ducts, veins, blood vessels, tissue, and nerves not to mention skin that has to heal. Not to mention your muscles, joints, ect have to get used to your new center of gravity. I have hundreds of sutures on the inside on each side of my body.

> Since about 2-3 weeks before the surgery I have not been fasting, but in the mornings I only eat meat since my biggest problem is with fruits/veggies. The problem is my body is rejecting a lot of the stiches. In the last 3 weeks I've had over 20 "dissolvable" stiches work their way out and they had to be cut out the rest of the way. Not plesant to say the least. It's 4 weeks since my surgery I'm over half way done with my 5th week, and my inscisions are no were near healed yet because they keep opening whenever a new stich comes to the surface. I also have a spot on the right side where my skin has actually died, and had to rejuvinate Per the surgeons nurse this type of thing typically happens with smokers, well I've never smoked, but my body is very reactive.

> The allergy side of me wants me to do the fast 5 but the medical side of me is saying not a good idea because my body needs the energy to heal. I am about 15lbs overweight, so I have fat to spare. I was fasting daily up until 2-3 weeks before surgery. I'm just torn on what to do. I had to stumble on fast 5 on my own as a fix for my allergies. My doctors were no help.
