Has anyone suffered from seizures after having surgery with anesthesia? My son had 3 surgeries within 18 months and after the last surgery, 6 weeks later, started having seizures. All tests possible have been done, nothing found. After having seizures for 2 years, he saw a naturalist Dr who detoxified him by giving him pills and they went away. He has just had 2 more surgeries and had seizures when coming out of the anesthesia. He now has the body tics back as well as the seizures. Also headaches and nausea after eating. Has anyone else had these effects from anesthesia?
If the Naturalist helped first time round i would go back.
One thing to consider is that there are many forms of anesthetic if one is causing a reaction mention it to the doctor and try something else next time?
There are many things that could be going on here and it is impossible to narrow down the possibilities without knowing more, but the most important thing is to get the seizures under control with medication and get a proper diagnosis of the exact kind of seizure. There is a phenomenon with seizures called "kindling" in which you get more seizures simply because you have had seizures in the past and they ave reinforced neuropathways that make it easier for more to occur. Therefore, you should medicate to control the seizures, find the type and cause, and see where that takes you.
Children often have seizure conditions that are benign, such as childhood febrile seizures and a cluster of adolescent seizure disorders that, if controlled by medication, can easily disappear as one reaches adulthood.
Good luck and keep us informed as to the progress!
