Seizures are significantly more common in individuals with autism and can be difficult to recognize because many symptoms look like autism-related behaviors. For medically complex individuals, considering an EEG and neurological evaluation may help identify an underlying cause of developmental, behavioral, or sleep changes.

⚡ Seizures may appear as staring spells, sleep disturbances, repetitive movements, mood changes, or loss of focus. Not just convulsions.

🧠 Many experts recommend a 24-48 hour EEG when seizures are suspected, especially in medically complex individuals or those experiencing developmental regression, unexplained behavioral changes, or sleep concerns.

📈 The risk of seizures is higher in individuals with autism than in the general population and may increase during puberty and into adulthood, making ongoing monitoring important.

❤️ Early recognition, comprehensive evaluation, and individualized treatment can improve safety, health, and quality of life.

In reference to a previous post, here is the requested clarification on how to do an aggravation zapper!

First follow-up in an autism case after 6 weeks of homeopathic treatment.

Here are the changes reported:
Behavior:
• Anxiety improved
• Tantrums significantly improved with no more throwing objects or aggressive behaviors
• OCD symptoms approximately 20–30% better, including less object organizing
• No longer fearful of dogs
• Restlessness resolved
Social:
• Beginning to observe other children more
• Making attempts to initiate play
Speech & Communication:
• Expressive language improving with more vocalizations and sounds
• Receptive language also improving
Sleep:
• Sleeping better overall
• Only occasional early morning waking
• A few nights of waking due to gas pain or thirst
Areas still needing support:
• Sensitivity to classroom noise
• Increased humming and singing. This can sometimes be an early sign that expressive speech is emerging. At the next follow-up, we'll be watching to see if these vocalizations progress into words. If they remain at the humming/singing stage, that symptom will help guide the next prescription.
• Constipation has not yet improved.

At this follow-up, constipation became the next priority for treatment. As the body heals, the focus often shifts to the next layer that needs support. Every child progresses differently, and treatment is always individualized based on the person's unique response.

Follow-up win:
An autistic child experienced the following improvements after starting Elaphoglossum plumosum:
• Overall calmer demeanor
• Increased social engagement
• More interest in playing with his brother
• Play became more purposeful and interactive
• Greater independence throughout the day
• Able to play independently without needing a movie or other entertainment when alone
• Increased imaginative play
• Developed an interest in building castles with blocks
• Created imaginative worlds by drawing roads and driving trucks through them
Watching imaginative play emerge is always exciting. It's often a sign that a child is becoming more engaged with their environment, developing greater flexibility, and feeling more comfortable exploring the world around them.
As always, every child is unique, and individual responses to homeopathic treatment can vary.

Clinical Pearl: I love gemmotherapy! Did you know that certain gemmotherapy extracts may help support microbiome balance?

A combination of Black Currant, Grape Vine, and Black Alder gemmotherapy extracts can be a helpful approach for supporting recovery from the aftereffects of antibiotic treatment. For even greater support, consider pairing this blend with a few weeks of Poly ABH and a high-quality probiotic to help restore a healthy microbial balance.

Clinical Pearl:

Did you know that if your child is herxing from herbs, you can often use a homeopathic aggravation zapper protocol made from the herbs themselves to help calm the reaction?

A mother I work with recently experienced this when her child had a significant herxing flare after starting Biocidin. She prepared a homeopathic zapper using the herb, and within an hour the herxing reaction had resolved and her child was back to his calm, regulated self.

This week, a lot of parents asked me about a liquid binder. Most binders come in capsules, which can be difficult to open and get kids to take, even when mixed into food or drinks.

One good option is Toxin Binder by Global Healing.

One thing to note: it does contain shilajit, so be mindful when giving it to boys. Shilajit has been shown to support testosterone levels in some studies, so in certain children(usually kids in puberty) it may be stimulating and contribute to restlessness or increased energy. As always, monitor your child's individual response.
