I'm sure there must be people out there that are going through the same
ordeal that my wife Lynne has been through.  Having been administered
various concoctions of the epileptic medications available, found herself a
virtual zombie with the side effects worse than the ailment!

I suspect that every epileptic has a similar story to tell, but my intent is
to keep this short!
All medical avenues exhausted, she approached a homeopath who, after
consultation, suggested that she cut all sources of sugar from her diet.
While I don't want to imply that this cured her seizures, they have reduced
in frequency from several a week - often every day (heavily medicated), to
an occasional seizure, usually associated with her menstrual cycle.  For the
past couple of years she has been taking no medication at all (I don't
advocate this choice for everyone).

This step alone, has had an enormous impact on her quality of life, and
despite the incredulous attitude of the medical fraternity, may help someone
else out there.
No known family history, or symptoms of diabetes.  EGG still confirms her
diagnosis as epileptic. Fructose, in moderation, as an alternative for
glucose seems not to trigger siezures.

One doctor admitted her to hospital to test this "theory", they initiated a
glucose-tolerance test, to check for diabetes.  Within 5 minutes she was
having full-blown seizures, but despite this they ruled this out as being
inconclusive (may have been stress/lights...)!

So, if you tend to have your seizures shortly after meals...this is a easy
one to test for and rule-out, good luck!
