Re: Seizures caused by environment

August 14, 2004

When my son Noah began having seizures suddenly last year, we had everything in

our house tested to see if it was environmental. Unfortunately, you'll find

pretty much anything and everything has seizures as a side effect in some way.

Top thing to check for is black mold. Also, we have cellulose insulation and had

it tested as we found that high exposure to breathing in the cellulose

insulation can cause seizures. We had a home air quality inspection and also had

our state's enviromental department test samples of things from our home. We

moved out for 2 weeks, and Noah continued to have seizures even then, and then

all the results from our home inspection came back ok, so we moved back home. It

is better to check everything- you never know!

Hey All --- I just met a lady today who's son & husband just started

having seizures last year. And then....to beat it all..... they just

found out that a neighbor (adult man) also started having seizures

recently. Oh.... and her daughter has started seeing flashing lights &

no one can explain it. The local health department has been involved,

but their epidemiologist says he cannot find a link. My question is

this...... does anyone know of environmental elements which can cause

seizures? Thankfully, medication is controlling the seizures for her

husband and son, but this mom is very frustrated. And I don't blame her!

Any thoughts???

Thanks!

Kathy - 's Mom

Pesticides, Mercury, Copper, Tin, (and other metals) and Cholorine

are all seizure triggers. Do your friends have well water ?
