Sasha had a seizure while I was driving

Hi everyone. Sasha had a seizure Friday while I was driving. We were coming home from my mother's house, and she started yelling "my eyes,my eyes. I can't open my eyes" Her eyes were half open and rolling. I can only see her out of the baby mirrior that I have facing the backseat in my car. Then she got quiet. I found a parking lot of a gym where I felt it was safe, jumped in the back and she was unconscience(?) I called her pediatrition and then my husband. It took me 20 bleeping minutes to get to the peds office (no freeway close by & I hit every red light!) She didn't come to until I pulled up to dr office. Her bp was low which is strange because she ate quite a bit at my mom's house. Dr doesn't know what to make of it and is calling the neurologist in San Diego. (We're sticking with that one because he seems to care what happens to Sasha and wants to find out what is causing her seizures. neurologist here not so much)
I knew she was going to change her seizure pattern if you could call it that---they're random but always happened upon awakening between 8 & 8:30am. I just wasn't prepared for it to happen while I'm driving.

How scary that must have been. I do hope you find some answers soon.
Give her a hug

It is "normal" for blood pressure to be lower right after a seizure. At least, that's what the ER doc told me the last week when Stacy's blood pressure was a tiny bit low when they measured it in the ambulance.

I hope Sasha is feeling better today.
