Patient: Eyes rolled over, foaming at the mouth, limbs bouncing around, no regularity in the onset, I think it’s epilepsy. I’ve taken Chinese medicine and it was once under control, but then it didn’t work. Dr. Chen, are my symptoms epilepsy? If so, is it still curable? I’ve been having seizures more and more often lately. Sanming Hospital of Integrative Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, Jian Chen: Dear patient: According to your brief description, you have generalized seizures of the tonic clonic type. I don’t know when you had the onset and what is your past medical history related to it? If you have any febrile convulsions or traumatic brain injury at the time of k? Do you have any family members or friends with similar medical history? What tests have been done during the treatment, such as EEG, brain CT, etc.? If the diagnosis of “primary epilepsy” has been made by a specialist, the patient will need to receive long-term systematic antiepileptic treatment. There is an international consensus on treatment, and there are specific diagnostic criteria for staging and treatment. Once the diagnosis is clear, regardless of the hospital (must be under the consultation and guidance of a specialist), the choice of medication treatment plan is basically the same. According to you, you took Chinese medicine to control the disease, which means that you have not been treated by a specialist system. According to domestic expert research and related literature, there are many Chinese herbal anti-epileptic preparations, the effective part of which may be due to the participation of western medicine ingredients, and the late invalidation may be due to insufficient dosage. The systematic and standardized treatment is mono-selective and individual saturation. In other words, one antiepileptic drug should be selected and increased or decreased with the disease (subject to blood concentration measurement) until the symptoms are controlled. If a single drug does not work, the patient may choose to be treated with other drugs, or use additional second-line drugs. Chinese medicine can be used as an adjunctive medicine, but it is difficult to know what kind of western medicine is involved. If you can receive standard treatment systematically, epilepsy can be completely controlled or even cured. As to what agent should you use at present? I need you to answer the above questions before I can give you a clear answer or treatment plan. Thank you for your trust!
