Epilepsy In Children
In children, seizures are of subclinical form, flow and apathetic disease pattern does not match the electroencephalogram. In adittion the form of the epileptic seizures in cheildren differs from those expirienced in adulthood.
Children with epilepsy suffer different social consequences then adutls, which are usually negative, especially in pre-school, school, high-school, university and eventually in employment.
Family in which there is a child with epilepsy is placed between hard place and a rock. On one hand, the stigma attached to a sick child with epilepsy, to some extent, also applies to their family . On the other - features of the disease: difficult to read by family members - seizures, which can be traumatic and life-threatening, as well as the inapplicability of the experience of epilepsy in the behavior of "normal" diseases. Independently chosen tactics of behavior with the patient often manifest by extreme hyper- attention to the child by their parents, especially by women, or in an attempt to ignore the disease - mostly from fathers. As a result, children with epilepsy often produce psychological disorders as a result of the disease that interfere with their social life. Moreover presence of an epileptic child can lead to a divorce.
If that is not enough, children with epilepsy have limited access to social institutions: kindergartens, rest homes, nursing homes, sports clubs, music lessons, foreign language tutoring. All of this is due to the fact that the staff of public and educational institutions should not only be informed about the disease and a possible accurance of aseizure, but must be also able to render first aid.
But who needs these problems. As a result, children withdraw into themselves and become social outcasts.

Prognosis of Child Epilepsy
Prognosis of epilepsy in children is ambiguous. For example, according to statistics five out of 100 children with the Vesta syndrome do not survive past 5 years of age, in some cases directly from the illness, in some - because of complications of therapy and medication.
Less than half of all children achieve relatively stable remission with medication. Statistics show that only 3 out of 10 cases treated satisfactorily, and only every 25th child shows more or less normal level of physical and intellectual development. 6 out of 10 children with the syndrome of Vesta epilepsy later in life. The vast majority (90%) of children suffer delayed physical or intellectual development, even in case of successful correction of seizures. Learning difficulties, behavioral problems, cerebral palsy (5 of 10 children), psychological abnormalities and the frequent development of autism (3 of 10 children).
I have over 17 years of experience in treating various forms of child epilepsy with naturopathic medicine, including foundations and methods of diagnosis Chinese, Arabic, Tibetan, siddha medicine, ayurveda and other areas of alternative medicine. The results are impressive, up to 95%, not including very severe cases.
