good news, josh was able to get on my health insurance jan 1st. we found a dr who specializes in epilepsy. this is the first time he has had in depth medical care since childhood. the dr ran some tests over the last month was not totally satisfied with the findings. this week he admitted josh to the hospital for 24 hr video eeg monitoring. josh has been ready to get this done, he can not wait for an accurate diagnosis and get on a better medication. they slowly lowered his dilantin the last couple days. yesterday he had a seizure in the morning. the dr was very pleased with the results he got. dx josh with primary generalized epilipsy and is starting a new medicine.....help me, i can't remember...starts with a D..dopa?something. anyway last night josh went to bathroom by himself and had another seizure. i ran in there pretty quick, but he still got bruised up. he slept all through the night, thank goodness. i came home for a little bit to take our dog out this morning
people, i am so scared. i still don't know very much about epilepsy. this was only the third seizure i have seen josh have. i am so afraid he is going to die from the epilepsy or having a seizure. i know i probably sound like a worry wort but he is my life and i just am so scared...
anyway thanks for listening. i am taking our dog to be boarded for the next couple days, she just is not getting enough people time from me right now....not sure when i will be back to check email but i know ya'll are out there thinking of us.
