i don't know what's wrong with her

[helloabbyx]

my friend is 14 years old, and she's had epilepsy all her life.  just recently, she's developed this strange sickness, if you will.  she's hungry, but she has no appetite.  she simply cannot eat.  it's been going on for a couple days now, and i'm really scared.  (she's not pregnant)

Does your friend take dilantin and has she recently changed to the new formulation
from Pfizer?. It has been causing lots of different problems.  If so, tell her to get a level checked as soon as possible.

has your friend changed her meds? i have epilepsy and i have the same symptoms sometimes.i will get hungery,but dont want or cant eat. my neuro told me its because our brains fire differently sometimes and our brain thinks your hungery, but your not. does her parents know about this? if she hasent eat anything for a couple days,she does need to get checked out by a doctor. make sure your friend gets alot of fluids . hope this helps
