diabetic seizure's in my husband PLEASE HELP!

ok so my husband became a diabetic at the age of 10 and now he is now 26 and get seizures alot and at first I would rush himto the hospital but he told me to just let him come out of them because it is the same thing everytime we go to the ER they say he is healthy and can't understand why this is happening. at about 8pm last night he was like a 300 something blood sugar level and at about 1am he had a seizure he was not low at all so I dont know how it happens or why but he came out of it within 5 minutes and was fine so we went back to sleep then at 8am it happened again another seizure so I had him check his sugers not low they were a 110 please help. I dont know what to do. we also have a 6 year old son. what should I lokk for in him to know if he is going to get it too. before my husband would only get them like once in a while and only once a day every like couple of weeks but now he is getting them sometimes twice a day. could he maybe need to be on seizure meds? again the docs never find anything wrong with him.

I am not a physician, but the mom of a type one diabetic and the daughter of a type 2. I would suggest that you discuss these seizures with your endocrinologist immediately.  Your husband could be having low while having the seizure, or coming down too fast from a high. By the time it is done as the body is release stored glucagons, and when you check the blood it seems normal.    There could also be other things that are causing it.

There is a genetic test that you can have done for your son but this will only tell you if has the gene not if he  will get diabetes.  Unfortunate there is no way to prevent or to predict who will and who will not get diabetes.

  You did not state whether your husband is on a pump or shot.  I would also ask you r doctor about the continuous glucose monitor.  This might help narrow down what is really going on with your husbands, blood sugars.  There is also a pump that has the monitor with it.

Has he seen in a neurologist?Not just in the ER, I mean, but for a more extensive workup. It's not impossible that he has a seizure disorder (e.g., some form of epilepsy) that is not related to his diabetes. An electroencephalogram (EEG) could be helpful, even, if necessary, a 24-hour one if they couldn't otherwise catch the seizure activity. Good luck.

Could his seizures be caused by something other than diabetes?

You will have to be very careful about seizures.  My son had many of them during his lifetime and did pass on about 4 weeks ago with one of them.   He was 31 and was diagnosed at 5 years old.

At the time of his passing it seemed he had a bad bout of the intestional flu and must have had a seizure and then his heart just stopped.  I do know for a fact that he was not good about taking his anti-seizure medicine.  That is one thing these people HAVE to do..
