Goodmorning! This place has been so very helpful...so here I am again!
I have been talking with my sons doctor about his side affects from Depakote. He didnt seem as conserned as I am. But this morning my Son could not even remember the color of his own tooth brush! Last week it was his Aunts name(which is my Sister) and about 4days ago I stopped and got him a quick sandwich at the drive threw...number 6 crispy...while eating it he mentioned how it was so good...cant belive he never had it before..will have to get it again...well we are not fast food eaters.. for the most part..but JJ has had this sandwich before! He has gained alot of weight in the past month he doesnt fit in his bigger pants I bought him 9 days ago...when I did call his doctor(going to call again this morning) he said it really was not an option to take him off this medication....he could back it off but would add another to take with it....I can not even tell you what kind of siezure had..it was never explained to us what the EEG showed...he just spent 2 days in the hospital..not even blood work! they put him on the highest dose of this stuff..after JUST ONE siezure...we took him for a follow up on friday to our family doctor..which gave us another number to a nurologist...I would like to try a more natural approuch to all of this if possible...maybe accupuncture...
any input? Thank you all again for being so helpful!
Hugs to all!
