@27angel ,
The thing that helped the most with my son's seizures was being able to get in to Mayo Clinic in Phoenix, AZ. My son's neurologist, Dr. Noe, is absolutely amazing. Our initial visit was over 2 hours long and included blood work and a referral to genetics, to see if there was something in my son's genes that would be a contributing factor. I would definitely recommend getting in to see a neurologist at Mayo. They are absolutely amazing and some of the most wonderful people you'll ever meet.
Another thing that was extremely helpful was keeping a daily journal (activities, sleep, stress, food, etc. ) to see if we could find a trigger to my son's seizures, since he is non-verbal. Having a strong, dedicated support team is crucial. I am so happy you found this support group. The people here are amazing and were EXTREMELY helpful when my son was first diagnosed (my son had adult onset epilepsy and is diagnosed with Mesial Temporal Sclerosis). Lean on the support you'll find here and your family/friends.

@keeg1010 Completely understand this epilepsy and cause was not even what I woke up thinking, I was thinking healing, but in order to properly heal you must know the start. I agree maybe tapping into genetics which I was already been there with the bloodline since 1918. If they will not say what I know is within my blood, then I can know it not preexisting. Rather something stressful is happening and its reoccurring. and I will not be able to control what is happening to everything I created with other inventors' superhero's in my adult life. Just because my life is stressful, I guess this would shut me down and seek medical help.
