Patient's question:
My brother suffers from epilepsy. When he was young, it was okay, but as he grew up and learned about his condition, he became very self-conscious. I am very worried about him. He doesn't like to talk, especially after a seizure, when he remains silent for a long time. I really want to help him, but how can I assist him? What should I pay attention to?Doctor's answer:
Epilepsy patients should pay attention to appropriately limiting the intake of carbohydrates and potassium while increasing the intake of magnesium in their diet. They should avoid excessive excitement, anxiety, and tension, maintain a well-structured daily routine, and ensure sufficient deep sleep every day. Wishing you a speedy recovery!In addition to immediate treatment, the dietary condition and psychological state of epilepsy patients are also very important during the course of treatment. Patients must avoid excessive mental stress and worry to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from epilepsy.
