Guest guest Posted July 7, 2004 Report Share Posted July 7, 2004 My daughter (3 in August) has seizures (mostly drop seizures, but occational tonic ones) secondary to meningitis. She started the diet on Marc 17th and has had some success. We even had a three week stretch with no seizures, the longest yet. That stretch ended after a meeting with her nutritionist who thought she had gained a little too much weight and wanted to lower her calories. I said I had probably been giving her too much fat ( a couple of grams here and there) and would more strictly adhere to the diet. So - of course, three days later, she has a seizure. Then 6 days later and then 4 days later and now 2 days later. Not a good trend. Has anyone else been through something like this? Does the control come and go? Should I think about upping her ratios (she's supposed to be at 3.5:1)? Any thoughts would be most welcome. Caitlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
