Hi all
Need a bit of help and advice. My daughter now 26 is type 1. Diagnosed when she was 8. Had all the usual issues growing up but got through it. She now has a 5 year old child jer own house and manages very well day to day. However from about the age of 17,18 she has been having unexplained seizures very similar to what she would have when she's hypo. She has had mri and various other tests and everything comes back normal! We have put it down to hormonal imbalances but her doctors don't seem to want to push it any further to find out what it is or how to help her, one doctor asked her to film it while it was happening! How she is supposed to do that I don't know. She seems to have given up herself and is accepting that they will continue to happen and she has to live with it. Sorry for the long post but any advise or similar situations anyone can give me.
