Great article @john1492, thank you for sharing it!
I have already been exploring some of those alternative ways of treating epilepsy, I have refractory epilepsy (Temporal Lobe with Mesial Sclerosis on the left Hippocampus).
Last year, I have started to treat myself with full-spectrum cannabis with high CBD and since the start of this year, I take pure CBD. Though my seizures continue, they have in general become much milder and I am feeling much better. Additionally, I practice yoga (hatha and nidra), which has been helping me much in terms of anxiety (an epilepsy symptom) and feeling better.
I also pay more attention to my alimentation, trying to include nutrients containing magnesium, other vitamins, and probiotics (I have read some studies showing a relation between some types of epilepsy and the gut). I also take omega 3 as a supplement.
I can for sure say that my life quality has improved much!
If anyone is interested, I am more than willing to share my experiences.
Have all a great day! 🙂

Hi Everybody!
Perhaps in my last post, I gave the wrong impression that I self-treat myself. All I do is with the orientation of my epileptologist and his consensus, including yoga, alimentation, vitamins, etc.
Wishing you all a nice week!
