I hope you don't think my question is
stupid, as it is a very genuine one.
My sister in law has very severe epilepsy
and my mum is considering buying her a
magnetic bracelet for a birthday gift.
This in not in hope of giving any relief
for the epilepsy just a nice gift. The
one she considering is a very decorative
with coloured and glass beads I have one
myself.
Mum is genuinely concerned if it would
have any adverse affect on her and I
wondered if anyone here had any advice for
her.

If your mum was to get a bracelet with
decorative beads etc attached to the
bracelet,and if your sister has severe
epilepsy andif she convulses , my concerns
would be could she hurt herself more with
the bracelet when she has a seizure or if
you bought an expensive bracelet it would
be disappointing to see it damaged.

Hello there danceman
thank you very much for taking the time to
reply to my question.
It may seem strange to say this but I am
not sure what form the seizure's take so I
am not sure if she convulses or not. I do
see your point though. I will pass on
your concerns to my mum tonight when I
speak to her.

There have been some people who proport
magnet therapy to help epilepsy. I know
that this is not what you are asking. I
only mention it to say that the only
averse side effects I have seen in print
is for some who try the magnet bed pads
and using all sorts of magnets....
I do not think there is harm in her using
on bracelet. You could let her borrow
yours for a couple of days to see,
though!
