I like sweets and doesn't affect my epilepsy, but causes havoc with my diabetes.

Drinking regular soda/ pop tiggers my seizures, but diet soda / pop doesn’t.
I haven’t found any SWEET’s that I’ve eaten that caused my to seizure. I oftenly have a Sweet Tooth for candy , sweet snacks , like Little Debbie treats and ect.

Every article I have ever read has said that epileptics should stay away from sugar. The smallest amount can cause a seizure.
DON’T SHOOT THE MESSENGER
And don't think about taking my ice cream! I'm having 3 spoon fills, not a pint. I think we can all enjoy our treats, the key is simple. Moderation.
