My son is 6 years old. At the age of 2 he had a nasty stomach bug, he spent 3 days vomiting and was not able to keep much of anything down. On the 4th day when we thought he was getting better he was very lathargic and had a seizure. We immediatley called 911. He continued to have more seizures about every 15-30 minutes, totalling about 7 of them before he was finally put on an IV. After a million tests and almost no answers, the assumed it happened because his electrolytes were out of wack from all the throwing up. I should also mention that he never had a fever during the illness. He got better, and for a year and half he was seizure free, until he got a stomch bug again. Just like before he spent days throwing up, and right when the throwing up stopped he had a seizure. This time it only happened once, and they got him on an IV right away. This time they also told us his electrolytes looked fine. So we were very confused as to why this was happening an no one had any answers. Again, he got better, and has been seizure free for nearly 4 years unil yesterday.
He was out in the backyard kicking his soccer ball around, and then he was laying on the ground acting silly and talking (acting like himself). When he went to get up, he looked into the sun, blinked his eyes a few times and then was unresponsive with his hands clenched and shaking. It lasted about 10 seconds and then he got up as if nothng happened and continued to kick his soccer ball around. He continued to act completely normal the rest of the day and night. I am taking him to his Dr. today, but i'm not very optimistic that I'm goin to get any answers. Because this time was so completely different than the other times, I am very confused and scared. Anyone with similar experiences like this?!?!
