Question
My child has epilepsy, and medication doesn’t seem to be working; it’s almost been half a year. There’s also hypokalemia, with the child feeling extremely weak. They’re almost one year old and still can’t lift their head. What should I do?
Answer
If your child’s symptoms have not improved, the medication may not be suitable. It is recommended to try traditional Chinese medicine treatment. At the same time, undergo an EEG to confirm the presence of epilepsy waves and whether the epilepsy is caused by hypokalemia. Choose appropriate treatment methods based on symptoms for better results. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment can identify the root cause, differentiate symptoms, body deficiency and excess, and yin and yang properties, and prescribe medication accordingly without side effects.
