Hi, @pbledso24 - welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Thanks for sharing this experience with your daughter and Kleine–Levin syndrome (KLS).

What symptoms did she experience before her treatment? Has she had any side effects from the Valproic acid (Depakote)?

I'm happy to hear she hasn't had any more episodes. We have been seeing an Accupuncturist and following Keto diet and he's been out of episode for about a month. We are focusing on healing his brain through his gut.

Can I ask how many episodes she had total? Also, does she have any cognitive issues remaining?
