Hello, I Am New To This Community And Have A 12 Yr Old Child Just Diagnosed With Epilepsy.
My question is regarding daylight savings..how do you take your medication at the same time?
@A MyEpilepsyTeam Member It is terrifying and my thoughts will be with you. Reach out as you need to.
Thank you to all for helping me navigate some of these questions. This is new to us and terrifying.
I have always just adjusted my meds to the time. If you are worried about it you could adjust the meds by 10 minutes every day until you have gotten to the time change.
It your uses Daylight Saving time it shouldn’t hurt and hour later or and hour earlier.
That’s what I had always done . When the time changes come I stay at the same time.
But when the season time change comes and your kid is taking meds at 6pm
( Example ) during the Spring into part of Fall then at the next season change you child would take the meds at 5pm Fall into part of Spring.
I always take it at 6:30 am & p.m. I go by the clock only.
What Do You Do If You Had Seizures All Your Life? I'm 68. Took All Epileptic Meds. Seeing Best Drs At Cleveland Clinic. To Old For Surgery.
Psychogenic Non Epileptic Attack?
As For Your Condition You Have, Is It Still New To You Or Not Quite Yet, Or Accepted The Condition And Ok With?
