Re: Re: LAUGHING SEIZURES? JANA

December 17, 2004

Dear Jana

did not just giggle and go to sleep, she laughed and laughed hysterically

for many minutes and would or could not be stopped. Finally she did drink some

apple juice for me (as I always think that maybe ketones are too high) and did

settle for the rest of the night. mentioned someone she knew that

laughed inappropriately and it was a seizure, at a funeral. The name Barbara on

this list gave me to investigate is " gelastic seizure. " Hope this helps.

just sounds like he was dreaming. Believe me, hysterical laughing you

will recognize.

I read your post and couldn't help to find interesting something

that you called " Laughing seizures " . just began the diet on

December 6th, had our first seizure on October 24th. He has laughed

in his sleep a couple of times since then, but we thought he was

just dreaming. Can you share more regarding this? They were just

giggles for a few seconds then he fell back to sleep?
