Me and my son

[mel]

Both me and my 9 year old son have seizures. I am dx with epilepsey. My sons were febrile convulsions until he has started haveing them above 6 years of age, going on for more than 1/2 an hour and occuring without a fever.

I am really well controlled with Epilim (but unfortuantely on it whilst pregnant - another long story....) my son was on epilem till they thought his seizures had stopped at 5 years old and weaned him off but they have returned. He has tonic clonic, absence (not yet dx), and complex partials. He also has autism and severe learning disabilties.

Thats us in a nutshell.

Would love to get to know people in similiar circumstance to get some more info and help.

Hi mel, welcome to the forum.

I already responded to your thread in the Nursery about you son, so I'll just take a moment to welcome you here. I take it you are in the UK?
