I'm really worried about my brother. He had his first seizure about 6 years ago and it turned out to be a small non-cancerous tumor in his brain. They operated on him back then and hes been on medication ever since. We were told the meds would stop any future seizures, but hes had three in the last year. The first two happened because he accidentally missed his meds, but the third one is a mystery because hes been following his medication routine perfectly. I'm trying to understand what else could be causing these seizures. Could you help me figure out all the possible reasons why this is happening?

Drinking cold water can exacerbate gastric problems, as it can cause stomach contractions and worsen digestive issues. Warm water is generally easier to digest and may help alleviate symptoms. However, if you prefer cold water, consider room temperature water or add a slice of ginger or lemon to aid digestion. Consult a gastroenterologist for personalized advice.
