MonkeyBoy, thanks for your input. I was wondering about the electrolyte testing. What specific test are you talking about if it is not a "standard modern" blood test? Do you mean isolating Mg and Ca and comparing just those two ionized levels or something other than blood serum testing???? Her neuro recommended Mg supplement. I got her a multivitamin but it has Ca too. I also put her on Children's DHA. I'm thinking I should take her off the multivitamin and just give her Mg. Maybe that is why she has seizure activity again--because of the Ca??!! Also...back in November she was under weight. She has always been super skinny. I love to cook from scratch. I don't use prepackaged foods and serve a variety of dishes for her to eat. In the last 3 months (since starting the Trileptal and MVI's) she has gained 12 lbs--also grew 2 inches. I have noticed her body changing but still was shocked that it was that much in 3 months. I'm chalking it up to prepuberty growth spurt and sports exercise. Her pediatrician wants to do a weight/height check monthly to keep an eye on it.
