Doing great!

Just wanted to let everyone know, all is well. No seizure activity since the last one. I REALLY feel I have GOT IT! I just FEEL that my seizures are GONE! Out the door! I can't wait to go for my check up to the neurologist. When she looks at the eeg and sees NO seizure activity!.....oh, I can't wait to see her jaw drop..... I will prove her WRONG!

A new interest of mine is a TV show on bbc america and it is called "You are what you eat." I think moving in raw food direction will DEFINITELY keep me seizure free! She also has a few books out under that name. Check it out!

LEARNED SOMETHING NEW

Ok...after a couple months or so seizure free, a day of old times returned....but just briefly. Here's how:

I am in the process of doing a detox with Dr. Natura's product (and it is wonderful!) and in doing that, well...that's a lot of liquid in your body first thing in the morning! So, I held back for a couple of days on all the epsom salt and apple cider vinegar. I thougth, "I'm doing so well....I'll be fine!!" NOT! Not that day, but the NEXT day and the day after, a few seizures returned! I was so surprised, shocked! Didn't know what to make of it all. And then I recapped the last few days and it was the lack of epsom salt, apple cider vinegar, and the cell food that did me in. Not to mention, I did this right in the middle of my menstrals. I guess I was being a bit too comfortable. I also checked my ph balance and it was very low and too acidic. I needed to get in the 7's again. SO, after the second day of a few seizures, I understood the problem and got back on my normal regime. No more seizures. You know, the beautiful thing with all of this is that I don't have to take these things like clockwork. The body is very understanding and strong enough to temporarily hold down the fort. But, I waited TOO long. And now I know. =) I will have this down in no time.

Still NO SEIZURES!

Ok... Today is Dec. 3rd and I STILL haven't had a seizure!!! And I am not taking ANY meds (drugs)! So, what have I been doing? I am in the process of doing a 2 month detox which is done through drnatura.com I LOVE their products. I did try it about a year ago and wasn't able to do it because I was still having seizures. I hated that because the relief it gives and the energy it gives you is so nice, but I was having seizures. At the time, I thought the detox formula was responsible for that. Now I know that is not the case. So, I am doing a full detox....and no seizures! I DO still eat VERY healthy foods...I try to eat organic as often as possible. I also have coconut oil and a coconut bar every day. I also put drops in my water which has oxygen and TONS of amino acids, vitamins, etc. And, I take my Xperia every day. And, OH! A couple of tea spoons of black strap molasses every day too. That has helped too. I just started my period today and even though I haven't slept my best the past 2 nights, I STILL haven't had a seizure AND my breasts didn't hurt at ALL before my period started. Also, omega 3 pill in the am and pm. I'm telling you, medical drugs AREN'T always the way to go!!! I tried it for 15 years with NO success. I have now seen the light and I am SOOOOOO thankful!

Oops, forgot to mention, I still do the epsom salt every other morning. Because I am doing the detox, I just don't want them to clash too much. But, I only put about 1/2 a teaspoon in. That is what works for me. Now, this may seem complicated right now, but I feel SO MUCH BETTER. And, I am so used to taking meds, this is nothing. AND, this diet isn't as strict as the pills were. I had to take those like clockwork. This is much more flexible.
