Re: Keto-Diet 1 month now.- Viola

October 22, 2004

Hi- I think there have been many cases where kids weren't seizure-free until

well into 6 or even 9 months of starting the diet, so you definitely still have

hope!! I know another family personally at our hospital that was on the diet for

6 months before seizures stopped. Keep on going!!

Hi my son Caden has been on the Keto diet for about a month now.We

have seen some decrease in the seizures, but still having some

everyday, i hoping its his meds that are interfering with the diet ,

he is on Depakote, ive heard that this is not a good drug with the

diet. Hope his doctor will try to take him off soon to see if there

is a improvment.If you dont see the seizures stop pretty quickly, is

this the best they are going to get , iknow we have to do some fine

tuning still.Was wondering the longer you work with diet the

seizures will get better or you have abetter chance of them

stopping, i know its early in but you just worrie so bad that this

is all your going to get.Has anybody started out this way and end up

seizure free after awhile. iknow iam asking alot of questions, but

iam just so new to this diet you just worrie about everything.

Caden,s mom Viola, Thanks.
