Suleiman 2013 Graves’ disease is an antibody mediated autoimmune disorder and juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) has been previously associated with Grave’s disease, and may be due to thyroxine causing a lower seizure threshold (Su et al., 1993). Our case 11 was diagnosed to have an idiopathic myoclonic epilepsy (JME) based on her age, seizure phenotype, and EEG abnormality. JME is considered to be a genetic epilepsy, and indeed in this case there was limited evidence that the epilepsy was autoimmune despite the presence of other autoimmune diseases, and her classification was “unknown” as she was negative for NSAbs and received no immunotherapy. |
