Question 5

lenox gastaut syndrome average life expectancy?

Accepted Answer

Haven't seen numbers: Haven't seen any numbers on life expectancy of lennox-gastaut patients. Maybe nobody has collected and published that information. One website reported a 3%-7% mortality in patients over a 9 year period (that sounds like 1/2 % per year). The deaths were often due to accidents. In such disorders, if a person is watched and cared for closely, he can outlive parents, and die of other natural causes.

So, the generic answers would be avoid obesity, cigarettes, too much or too frequent alcohol, eat a diet high in proteins and low in sugars and to get regular cardiovascular exercise.
