Brief Answer:
No need to worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
I understand that your child had seizures.
What is your daughter's age?
Hypoglycaemia is common only in newborn period.
Usually it doesn't cause further episodes of seizures.
As MRI is normal don't worry. There is nothing seriously wrong in the brain.
EEG being abnormal indicates abnormal current discharge from brain which can be and must be controlled with drugs like levipil.
You need to continue medicines as advised. Usually for 6 months minimum and them get EEG repeated.
Your child will recover.
Don't worry.
Follow up regularly with your doctor.
Wishing your daughter speedy recovery.
Regards
Dr Arun

No problem with ac use daily.
There is no dietary restrictions in your daughter's case.
Routine home made diet can be given.

Seizure may come again, but if no seizures for 6 months to 1 year, chance of recurrence is less.
