Hello,

I just joined the group and wanted to offer an intro.

My sons are both adopted ,from " druggie " birth

mothers, were evry abused and neglected prior to

coming to us and both have DX of Cerebral Palsy with

Seizure disorder,

The youngest ones seizure are fairly controlled, the

older ones are NOT!

The Neuro has both on Depakote Sprinkles. They take so

much meds and if I let them, the docs would have them

on even more than they are on. I hate AEDs etc and the

side effects are awful but the doc says it is a lesser

of 2 evils.

My oldest is developing tremors and " panic " outburst

since being on Depakote and the doc says it is because

he is not on enough and I must raise the dosage even

more?

I have read a lot of your posts and have some

questions.

Do the B vitamins help ease some of the side effects

of AEDs?

Has anyone tried GABA supplements?

How about herbs, any suggestions?

ANY suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
