About a year ago Kater started complaining about headaches. She would come home from school, want to lay down and sleep. I would give her Tylenol and within 10 minutes she would throw up. Not sure if from the medicine or from the headache. She would sleep for a couple hours, wake up and tell me she felt better. I kept track of them, like the Dr. said. She also told me that they sounded like migraines, but if that is what they were then the meds she takes for her seizures would cover the headaches as well.
She went for the last 4 months without any compliants...until Sunday. Last night she came home from school and laid on the couch and fell asleep. I made supper and she said she felt too bad to eat. Was going to give her some Ibuprofen, but she said she felt like throwing up so I waited. In the meantime I called the nurses line since it was after hours. The nurse asked me if the headaches are related to the epilepsy or something else. *Bad Mom moment* I told her I have no clue, and explained exactly what her Dr. had told me. I am going to call her Ped. today, since she is in town, and see what she thinks. Kater has an appt in February with her Neuro at the Children's Hospital, so maybe she can use that time to do more tests or whatever she feels can be done.
