Suggest Ayurvedic Treatment For Epilepsy
hello sir, i had my seizure for the first time this 28th june when i was traveling to US AND WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEUROcysticerosis . the parasite was presumed to be dying as a result of this occurrence. the dexamethasone and keppra medication is what i m consuming. is there any ayurvedic treatment as my problem is very minuscule but the drug keeps me sedated and under its control at all hours.i m 44 years old ,jogging and active life style vegetarian male. these drugs seem to be creating more harm than good and in longer run they may harm my system. kindly advise me.

Hi Welcom to HCM
This Dr Suchda Naturopath - Homeopath - Magneto therapist taking your query to help you .
It is very strange that inspite of being so active and vegetarian , at 44 years 'young' age you have been diagnosed with Neurocysticerosis . actually that doesn't have to do anything with age .
Neurocysticerosis, is caused by infection with the larval cystic form of the tapeworm, Taenia solium. How it travels to our blood stream and to brain and leads to seizures, is a different story .
In Ayurveda this is cause of this disease and heart interlinked with with mind is primarily effected .Some physical factors as constipation gas in stomach & impaired digestion system are precipitating factors , THE aim of Ayurveda is to correct nervous system and strengthen the heart
What I want to know is ,
what are the symptoms you felt during the attack,?
Did it start in fingers and toes ?,
Thumb turned inwards during attack ?
Any previous history of skin disease -Suppressed , at any age?
Started with headache ?
Any head injury at any age ?
Worse touch or jar ?
Any cramps or convulsions etc?
Are the few queries to be replied by you for proper prescription
Meanwhile , I will suggest you to take Homeopathic Gelsemium 30 / 3 doses after 1/2 hours gap first day ,to remove the effect of sedatives and Cuprum Met 30/4 hourly , for a week
In Ayurved Brahmi & Vacha are recommended to correct nervous system and strengthening the heart
Other things to be taken into consideration are Diet-- should not be pungent strictly , simple
nourishing food ,fruit, veges and fibers are essential
Intake of adequate amount of water Use of less salt and less fat
Mental strain of all types should be avoided. Should keep busy so that don't get time to brood over illness or your past.
Massage of head and soles of feet daily with Til oil will ensure recovery fast .
Walk Yoga , Deep Breathing ,Bhrameri & and Anulom vilom are helpful in strengthening mental power
Hope this will help you in removing your woes .
Keep in touch with your treating doctor regularly .All the best Take care
Don't hesitate to come back if have any further query
