Question
The child began experiencing epilepsy seizures at five months old. An MRI revealed a 4cm arachnoid cyst in the head. The doctor mentioned that the child is too young and suggested waiting until they are one year old for surgery. Currently taking Keppra, experienced a recurrence during a cold and cough at the hospital. What should be done?
Answer
I’m glad to assist you. After reading your description, it seems that traditional Chinese medicine treatment should be considered, complementing the Keppra you are currently taking. Traditional Chinese medicine has the effects of clearing phlegm, calming the wind, transforming nature, resolving blood stasis, nourishing the heart and kidneys, calming the liver, and reducing fire. Gradually replacing Western medicine with Chinese medicine, it has no dependence, minimal side effects, and can counteract the side effects of Western medicine, nourishing the internal organs, and surpassing the effects of self-healing.
