It has been a while since I posted, and I am happy to say that my son is doing well. He went 14 weeks without a seizure, which is the longest we have ever been. Last week he had a night of seizure of activity, it turns out his levels dropped as a result of growth and increased metabolism, so now we upped the meds and hoping for the best!
The reason I am posting however is because of my daughter, not currently diagnosed with Epilepsy. I have seem some weird things from her in the past, reminds me of my son's partial seizures but I have no real proof of anything. What is concerning me now is her terrible mood swings and irrational behavior. It seems odd to say this because she is three and at the height of irrational behavior but she is my third child, I teach kids all year and work at a summer camp in the summer, I know how three year olds should act and this isn't it. My son was also a very difficult and irrational child, never would I have guessed he would have frontal lobe epilepsy, i.e. have impaired ability to control frustration and impulse. Now that I know it exists I am worried and wonder if I need to purse a work up on my daughter. My son was not diagnosed until he was 7.5, he is now almost 10. Could he have had epilepsy at 3, just not manifests as it currently does? Does my daughter have epilepsy too? Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!
