hi to everyone, tis sounds like a great place to get some info, support and feedback. glad to have found it.
my 13 yr old boy was diagnosed benign rolandic epilepsy a few years ago. he has different kinds of seizures like facial seizures ...zoneing out and speaking garbled up words....confusion to where he is and what he is doing....grand mal when sleeping etc. he is going for a repeat eeg this weekend as he has been having drop attacks also. no warning ~just loosing consiousness and hitting the floor, wetting himself. no convulsing.
we have tried the wait and see approach, the high vitamin appraoach, and now the tegretol twice a day. he has been on tegretol for a year now and although the seizures that he was having seem to be gone, he is still having these drop attack things. he has had 3 in the last year.
very frusterating.
i would love some input if you have some, nice to not be alone!
