Epilepsy

can swollen lymphnoids cause seizures. My daughter has had swollen lymphnoids, problems swollowing, ear problems and drooling for the past 8 months and after about 2 months developed seizures. Very slight but frequent and every day. She isn't talking yet and she is 27 months old.

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. My daughter is doing better since I put her on Methyal B12 Shots at the start of the year and vitamins everyday. Her episodes are less frequent and she is starting to talk. To answer your question her birth was an Emergency C-Section and she was born 15 days early due to a lowered heart rate of half. She has been sick with a runny nose since she was born and it just progressively got worse until these episodes developed. I have also had her skull plates checked and adjusted which has also helped.

Hello,
Swollen lymph nodes can occur due to any infection, inflammation, cancer or any systemic disease. Delayed milestones, speech problems, swallowing difficulties, eating difficulties and mental sub normality are the common symptoms of cerebral palsy. Seizures are also part of this static encephalopathy. What was the birth history like? Any intrauterine or postnatal hypoxia can lead to brain damage and cause cerebral palsy. This is only a possibility based on information shared by you. I advise you to seek the opinion of a Pediatrician and get her evaluated. Investigations like MRI brain may be needed. Do write to us again on how she is doing. I hope it helps.
Best wishes!
