Article Synopsis
- Eating epilepsy is a rare condition in children where seizures are triggered specifically by eating, as demonstrated in a case of an eight-year-old girl with seizures primarily occurring during meals.
- Despite normal results from various diagnostic tests, her EEG indicated a seizure disorder, leading to a diagnosis of reflex eating epilepsy after ruling out other similar conditions.
- Treatment with oral sodium valproate significantly reduced the frequency of her seizures during meals, improving her overall symptoms.
