Hi,
The more I research, the more I think he is having seizures. We have an appt. with the neuro in June.
He is 4 years old, had a traumatic birth, and often has staring spells. He wakes in the middle of the night and usually stays up until morning. He has had 2 sleep studies -but he did NOT go to sleep. They have ruled out night seizures, but that does not make sense to me.
Recently he has been diagnosed with Autism and OCD. We have known something was going on for a while, but I am not so sure it is Autism.
I used to zone out when I was kid, get lost when I was trying to read, and also get in trouble at school for day dreaming. Never had problems sleeping, though. Sleeping is our big "question mark." Why is he waking in the middle of the night? It has been going on for so long-at least 2 years. I am going to have to start a journal to keep track of his behavior.
We have done the GFCF diet and he seemed to be doing well with it. We will have to try to be more diligent with it and try again.
Thanks...
I feel like a lost mom looking for answers
