There are drugs that can be taken that will reduce the number of episodes she has to the barest minimum. I've seen people who have the same condition get better, with decreasing frequency and period of convulsions. The drugs used are not that expensive, so all you need do is just visit a specialist hospital. I'd have mentioned a drug here, but I can't arbitrarily give a prescription without a detailed history of the individual. She really shouldn't continue suffering because she assumes the financial implication of treatment is high, it isn't.

Yes meeting a doctor is sure, just want to know if there is a medical solution to it.


You know nairaland is a big community.
Nairaland is a big community but not a hospital!

A wrong medical advice here can be dangerous to her health!

Take her to a federal medical centre or teaching hospital to see a specialist if you love her..

Please doctors in the house is there a cure for nocturnal epilepsy?

I have a pretty girl, we started dating 8 months ago, this girl is everything I need in a woman, she is neat, cooks well and humble, so perfect to my taste but she is epileptic.

I have been inviting her to my house for over 5months for her to sleep over in my apartment but she keeps refusing, telling me she has a problem then I later promised her whatever the problem is that I wouldn't abadon her.

She finally came on friday, we ate together and later in the night at 22:38 she started having epilepsy and after about 45mins she woke up and started crying, she told me she has been suffering from epilepsy since Feb 2019 but she hasn't been to the hospital due to financial issues.

So please can we find drug for nocturnal epilepsy, it happens to her only at night like 30 to 35mins in her sleep.

If it is as recent as 2019 then it may not be epilepsy. She's having seizures due to an underlying illness that could be fatal. If she dies nairaland people will only tell you sorry.

If it is epilepsy please consider marijuana, fresh one that you grew yourself o abeg. Read and do your own research so that you will understand where I am coming from.

No.

Obviously that's not epilepsy.

Ask if she's ever had an accident that caused a huge impact to her head. That could cause a brain tumor. Tumors are a major cause of seizures; and like someone already said, seizures are different from epilepsy.

No more or less than marrying a girl without epilepsy. Love her the same and be flexible. If her seizures are under control, you may never even witness her have one. Medical emergencies happen to even the healthiest of individuals and marriage is “in sickness and in health.”

What you can do, is be prepared to remain calm if she does have a seizure. Depending on the severity of the seizure or her treatment plan, you may have to take her to the emergency room and sit for hours on end while it seems like nothing is happening. As someone with Crohn’s disease and epilepsy, this is something my husband has had to learn how to cope with. It can be very frustrating to watch the love of your life feel vulnerable. All you can do is be patient.

Keep a list of her medicines, allergies, and conditions on hand in case of emergencies. This is important for ANYONE and helps medical providers make decisions as quickly as possible.

In the case of having a seizure, it is illegal and irresponsible to drive until cleared by a physician. Each state has its own regulations. In Tennessee, I had to wait 6 months to drive again. In Indiana, the waiting period is only 3 months. That may mean you spend more time carpooling, but that’s just more time to be together!

My friend had epilepsy for 6 years. All medical help failed, he turned to God. On the sixth year he was in a dream and saw 7 men on a white Rob remove something like a maggot from the back of his neck. The maggot is actually huge than normal maggot. He said he tried to kill it in that dream but the men told him to forget the maggot and enjoy his new found freedom. He woke up and it was about 2AM. This is 1996. Till date he has never experienced that again.
I as a person has problems that made me stool blood anytime I go to toilet from 1995 to 2006. In one Sunday service a pastor(the poor type) prayed for sick people, and I believed with faith and it worked. Mind you for many years I have always had different pastors visit our church and make such prayers, but that day I had the out of the world faith.
My point is, God is the answer to any problem to them that believe

i dont think there is any known cure for epilepsy , there are some ailments that orthodox medicine cant cure but they only know how to manage them , if you go to the hospital you will be given some drug to help the lady manage , but as per curing , it seems you have to go spiritual about it , either prayer in church, mosque or you go for traditional medicine

Where are you located?
If in the South-East/Imo State, I recommend to visit Regions Stroke and Neuroscience Hospital in Owerri. They have a free to low-cost epilepsy clinic for qualified participants. The medical doctor who oversees their epilepsy cases is trained in the U.S. and highly qualified. Please visit a specialized center for neurological issues, as recommended by others, and do not result your girlfriend to self-medication.

Those seizures are simply as a result of her brain reacting to some allergic conditions. There are drugs that suppress these triggers, but they're a little expensive, and she might have be on them for sometime. Epilepsy doesn't have a medically known cure. It can only be managed or taken away by God. The latter has healed at least 2 people I know of.

However, let her watch herself so closely. There could be somethings which she does or likes doing that might be triggering the seizures. Did she ever have an accident or incident where something hard hit her head? Is there a family history of Epilepsy in her family? Has she been on any drug/medication prior to the onset of these epileptic attacks? And how old is she? Answer this and we'll take it from there.

I'm no medical doctor. However, Im committed to researchiing chronic diseases; its causes, symtoms remedy if any and care management in the event of no cure.

Well, from the description op, I will suggest you take her to specialist neuro hospital and demand a comprehensive physical examination be done on her, also request an MRI be performed on her brain. These two tests should reveal some interesting information.

PS: i doubt thats the only symtom she is experiencing, she may be having tremors. Ask her

Oga..... seizures can also be as a result of cancer or tumor or a recent injury/ trauma to the head....it’s not only epilepsy that causes seizures

people don’t just start developing epilepsy when they are already an adult...it would have showed up earlier than that...

She needs an MRI scan....if you can afford it take her to LUTH....they will refer you....

for now.. don’t let her sleep over... if she die for ur house... police go say na ritual u wan do oooo

There's a solution, visit an hospital preferably a tertiary facility like a teaching hospital. and if it's truly nocturnal epilepsy the treatment is very cheap. I had it 2011/2012 I was placed on a single medication that I used daily for 1yr or thereabouts and I was completely cured

If you are Christian pray and also visit a doctor, epilepsy is not a spiritual issue as we take it..... it is a seizure that occurs in the brain...... Pray to God and also visit a doctor............ Lastly google it..... there are lot of information online to help you and your girlfriend.
