A lawyer assisted a guy here last week or so when his girlfriend and workers got arrested. That lawyer is a Nairalander.


Oga there are doctors and other professionals here. Don't look down on our darling Nairaland.com.
I put it to you that 99% of the active doctors* on Nairaland are medical students, nurses and other health professionals. Doctors are too busy to come online to respond to such messages as these and if they respond it'll be "please visit a hospital".

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.

Try Sodium valproate(epilim)
Or Tegretol (carbamazepine)

Is she related to PHCN. Nepa. Take her to hospital

There are so many medications for epilepsy but the fact is that there is hardly a permanent cure for that.
So many muscle relaxant drugs in combination with moderate hypnotisers and brain chemical balancers are used to mange it. It's not nice to prescribe drugs online so I won't do that.
Visit any tertiary health facility around you and you are good to go. For economic reasons, don't go to a private hospital for this particular case.
Good luck bro

Hi OP. I’m very sorry to read that your girlfriend has epilepsy or rather seizure. I would like to suggest what could be done to help keep her safe whenever she is having a fit. There are some medications to administer but I will mention a few if they are actually over the counter in Nigeria. You can get Buccolam or Epistatus filled or pre-filled oral syringe. Empty the content in the space between the inside of her cheek and the lower gum of her mouth. But first you need to monitor the fit to ascertain how long. If it is more than 5 mins, then administer, if it is not, then allow her to rest and clear the brain confusion. Most importantly, be there for her and show her love. You can also use Midazolam but I will advice you read about the side effects before going for it.

PS: I am not a Dr. or Pharmacist but have managed seizure clients with the above mentioned medications as prescribed by their GPs.

That's highly unprofessional and medically unethical bro. Do you realise that those drugs are psychotropic activators and administered with close monitoring ?

Boss egilepsy does not happen only in the night , just visit a strong pastor and let him pray for her. She will be fine

Bro, go traditional way but if it’s more than please don’t go far Cos I’ve heard about someone that try helping a partner too out of this and the epilepsy got transferred to The dude Cos he never knew the epilepsy doing the lady was more than an eye and he was punished back For trying to help her out and you know for attending to what’s not his. So go traditional way Cos most epilepsy are more than something and attimes sent by someone to disgrace a family.

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.

is marijuana not more dangerous in it's fresh form?

so what will now be the way out if accident cause it?
Dididrumz:


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.

Seizure isn't epilepsy? didn't know this.


She struggles with her body and pushes her hands up and legs like she is riding a bicycle.

Look at it this way...not every seizure is caused by epilepsy.. Children experience seizures when they have high fever. That does not make them epileptic..Your girl needs to see a specialist for proper evaluation. Nothing here would be of much help..

To be certain it's a an accident caused seizures it'll be advised to first do an MRI scan and if a tumor is seen then a neurological surgery will be the next step

God's ur strength, but truth be told issues like this aren't cured medically
it can only be cured by herbs/shrubs (Authodox Dr.)
I'm one myself but I don't treat such
But I know a gud Ortodox Dr who does
Re: Help My Girlfriend Is Epileptic. by Cloudlord(m): 5:52pm On Sep 28, 2020
Go and buy her black seed oil. Let her be taking it three spoon in the morning and three at night for like a week consecutively. Am sure she will be fine. You can get it from any Islamic material shop. It is also called Habbatu Saoda.

The first time she takes it, she might vomit lots of dirty substances, don't panic. Be giving her small small till she can take three spoons at a time. Only twice a day. Morning and night.

No.
Bro it's Seizure.
God helped me by meeting a Pharmacist who suggested Carbamazepine to me.
It's a corrective drug and might help you as well.
Ensure she eats well too and should get enough rest as well.
Re: Help My Girlfriend Is Epileptic. by Godsonkemz(m): 6:11pm On Sep 28, 2020
I understand how you feel because I've been into the same situation. I once dated a beautiful lady that suffered hearing problem. She wouldn't want me to notice whenever we had a discussion as she would smile as if she heard what I said. I tried to help her see a doctor but she was so stubborn to accept doctors prescription. Because of her stubbornness, I went for an alternative medicine. I denied myself comfort as I browsed through the internet all night searching for home therapy. Can you imagine the recipe I prepared for her to help restore her hearing was abused and wasted because I used garlic to prepare it as directed by an expert. When I say something she hears the opposite of it. Imagine when you want to say I love you, she will hear a different thing and this led us to several misunderstanding until I couldn't bear it any longer.

The best you could do for your babe is to take her to a physician.

Bsideboi:
stfu ! Do you help people because of what they can do for you?
not abt helping pple because of what you get from them

It is just a mere case of them gals not looking your side if the reverse was the caese.
Men were once know for the "condoning species"
But times are changed, gals and experience from others have thought us that they(gals) can NEVER love you for who you are!

That is the sad world we are in.
