My Epileptologist noted my weight loss
And noted sz in the office. The nursing
Assist have once a day a mild type drink which comes in flavors in a pack! I am a diet which is tasty and low calorie. Milk product, greens, protein and low calorie goodies! Sz, make me lose my appetite! I have urinary problems and kale helps. Seizures are a festival but we find remedy for our own selves!

I find that I'm not hungry after a simple partial.

Yes I do. But like others, I force myself to eat something even if it's a health bar. Don't do this until you check with your doctor for if one eats too many, it can affect a couple organs in your body. That happened to me.

Hello VickieKelley! I started having seizures at the age of two and my appetite didn't change too much when I was a child, teenager, or young adult in my 20s and 30s. However, my appetite changed for me after being diagnosed with premenopause almost four years ago. When I have had more recent seizures back from 2021 and on then my appetite has changed. I don't know what I would like to eat and sometimes lose my appetite after having a seizure.

I have not had much of an appetite but have to eat due to taking my medication. Have not had a seizure for couple years but can’t stand strobe lights.
