| I don't know if there have been any studies but when I worked out regularly I noticed my seizures to be less severe.

| I believe Rebecca's first seizure was triggered by vigorous exercise (3 hrs of intense figure skating), bad nutrition and nothing for the body to pull on that day, hormones.) I really see it as building blocks. If a few are askew and you pile on one more... bam they all come flying down. We all have a threshold. My threshold for my migraines is now higher, due to the fact that I found my triggers, and made changes to my lifestyle and the nutrients that my body was needing. Now I don't get migraines. Weird... after 30 yrs of suffering. I think you have found the magic bullet Forward... for some it is a help and for others it is the last straw on top of a system that is overburdened. Trying to figure out where you fit in the puzzle is the hard part.

| Mine fluctuates, since primarily my seizures are mostly nocturnal anyway, in the past - but at the present stage ~ I'm having them both day and nights, so it appears my seizures are changing. |

| Stacy's seizure threshold stays higher when she maintains her morning yoga/excersize regimen. Aside from the overall health benefits of regular excersize, it does affect neurological systems.
