The neurologist called my husband back today. He had called first thing in the AM, per the pediatrician's instructions, about my 6 year old being temporarily unable to move her arm(TWICE!), and then opening her mouth to speak(she was playing with Barbies, and trying to make the 'teacher' one talk) and was unable to get words to come out.
The eeg came back normal. No change at all during these events. I just do not get it.
After the eeg was off, she was working on a project for school. She was trying to put stickers on to something, got that "weird" feeling like she has to squeeze her hands. I SAW her shaking. I SAW her struggle to get the sticker on to the box, and saw her legs shaking, until she squeezed her hands.
My husband talked to the neurologist who said it isn't neurological. When he asked her how the heck a 6 year old could be experiencing these things is "normal", she said that my daughter was lying for attention, and should see a therapist. I am just FLOORED that that is what they are sticking to. It isn't like she was answering "Yes" to everything they asked. It isn't like her story is changing, at all! I just can't believe it.
