Guest guest Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 - I've no experience with seizures but can only imagine how horrible it is to watch your child suffer and not be able to help. My prayers are with you guys for a quick resolution! Hugs- Michele W Aubrie's mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 (and Sally, too). For some reason the doc. that I am thinking of, I think was planning on moving to your area which is why I think Sally might be helpful (Lord knows my brain isn't recalling the name!!). I am so sorry that is having such a tough time--does she have any ear infections or anything that might be spurring this seige on? poor boo boo, give her a kiss. pam Re: Neurologist - OH, IN, KY? - Sally Prouty, Please Read Pam, I'm going to put Sally's name in the message line on this and see if she might be checking in.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Pam, No, no ear infections, sinus problems, congestion, or anything of that sort. These seizures almost seem to run in waves, though. And they'll disappear and return from day to day, too. She had SUCH a bad night Wednesday night, but then yesterday she was totally back to her old self, and her aide said that she had the best day at school that she had had in weeks. Go figure! You kind of saw that too, though, when we were at Perkins--how " on " she was the first day and how " off " she was the next. That's what makes the whole thing even more puzzling. , mom to (4) http://kauffmanlak.blogspot.com/ __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Just to add confusion - one of the moms in my special needs moms group predicts her sons seizures by the neap tides (in the farmers almanac)......

Guest guest Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 , How did get through Christmas?? Is she ok? You are right--we did see the " switch " --I do hope neurology can help figure this out for all of you. xo pam Re: Neurologist - OH, IN, KY? - Sally Prouty, Please Read Pam, No, no ear infections, sinus problems, congestion, or anything of that sort.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Hi Pam, did well over the weekend, but then had another really bad day on Tuesday. The mood swings were totally over the top all day long. She was just miserable all day--and so were we watching her. It's just a very helpless feeling to watch her go through that. Her sleep was off the night before, so we're not sure if that's what triggered it, or what. The increase in her seizure med just doesn't seem to be helping much this time, though. Her neurologist wants us to increase it a little more, but we're not sure if that's going to help things or possibly make them even worse. I guess we'll try it and see. Another mom on the list emailed me privately and recommended the Cleveland Clinic as having a great pediatric epilepsy department, so we are going to call there next week and see if we can get an appointment. I'm sure it will take a while to get in, but it will be worth it if we can get some answers. It's about four hours from here, which really isn't that bad, especially considering that they are covered by our insurance plan. Wish us luck! I'll keep you posted. , mom to (4) http://kauffmanlak.blogspot.com/ __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
