Dairy is Tom's main trigger. Once we got him off all dairy, we were able to get him off all AEDs. That made it easy to figure out other triggers. Rice and coconut, as well as getting sick. It's not an immediate seizure, but seems to hit around 2am. However, since I read all labels of what he eats, it's been pretty easy to figure out what he ate different that day. Or, if he's sick.
