[|Human|] Hi - my son is almost 22 years old.  He was a 10 week premie and had a grade 3/4 cerebral hemmohrage.  He was seizure free until he was about 10 years old. Then they started after he fell and struck his head.  He has used a wheelchair due to Cerebral Palsy.   He takes Keppra, Celexa, Trileptal and another one that I cannot remember. His seizures come about every 30-45 days.  Theyve been classified as partial focal seizures and sometimes they last up to 45 mintues and we use 2 diastats sometimes.  Any thoughts? I am interested in vitamins or herbs.
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted the complaints of your son. He has epilepsy, which is fairly well controlled on multiple medications. As he had brain hemorrhage, he is likely to require anti-epileptic medications for entire life. Vitamins and herbs may not help much. However, vitamin B12 deficiency should be looked for, as its deficiency can exacerbate seizures. If he has vitamin B12 deficiency, then, he should be given B12 supplements. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
