Anticonvulsant Medication
Is there any other ways other than anti-convulsants that help with seizures that anyone has tried? I’m going to talk to a doctor about it, don’t worry. I’m just curious if there are any other ways other than medication because I hate the side-effects. I may just deal with it. I’m probably going to try Depakote.
I’ve had a Vagus Nerve Stimulator (VNS) and now have a Neurostimulator (RNS)
Ketogenic Diet, Does Anyone Follow This Treatment For Seizures, Or Even Just Try Low Glycemic Diets For Seizure Control?

Thanks
I just started the Modified Atkins Diet one week ago. I'm in the early stages of it. I'm hopping it helps.
