It was 38 years ago today (20th February 2009) that I was first administered Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine HCL) by my pediatrician in an attempt to stop my severe seizures. It was a success! All Antiepileptic Drugs were slowly stopped. I had been using vitamin B6 only, on a daily bases to control my seizures, for the first 19 years of my life. Then, when I was 19 years old, after doing much research and with my doctor's consent - I added a multi B complex tablet to my daily B6. This stopped an aura that I was experiencing almost every morning. All of my 'severe' seizures (TCs, myoclonic seizures, SPs, CPs... etc. (many different seizure types)) have been controlled for 18 -19 years, using B vitamins only.
In over 38 years of having seizures I have never used any Antiepileptic Drugs to control my seizures. Antiepileptic Drugs have no positive effects on my seizures.
I will always be very grateful to the professor who was doing research into childhood epilepsy at that time and who suggested to my pediatrician to administer vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine HCL).
