What can happen because of elevated lactate levels in the brain?

I can't offer much as to your question, but want to welcome you to the

group.

I have heard that elevated lactic acid in the brain can cause anxiety or

panic attacks. I'm sure there is much more to it and that someone else has a

better understanding.

I was told and we think that has happened to me a couple of times, have MRS

showing episodes of seizures. We think my son had a stroke like event in

November. Also, my sister went into 2 four day comas in 1994 and 1996 and

10 hours of seizures and a 2 week coma.

Not much can be done about it from talking to the doctor who diagnosed us

except an experimental drug called DCA which has its own side effects.
