Patient's question:
My uncle has epilepsy. He has about five or six episodes of it per year now. Each episode is a kind of torment for us. It's really heartbreaking to see him like that. I really want to take good care of him. How should epilepsy patients be cared for?Doctor's answer:
Hello:I am very pleased to provide this service. Based on the situation you described, epilepsy patients should first prioritize rest and avoid staying up late. It is essential to ensure sufficient deep sleep to prevent negative emotions, such as excitement, anger, or frustration. Always maintain a calm and stable mood. Avoid spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods. Your diet should be light, nutritious, and easy to digest. Do not overeat or skip meals. Drinking alcohol, strong tea, coffee, and other stimulating beverages is strictly prohibited. Avoid watching frightening or stimulating videos. Wishing you good health!
