My 26month old was at child care today and was building a block tower and his carer rang me to say he was fine but whenever his block tower fell down he fell down and his eye's went vacant and fluttered, like he was having a small seizure, he came good pretty quickly then got up and built the tower again and then the same thing happened. Could the block tower falling down really cause a seizure?
He is not 100% at the moment so his event's are more pronounced. They were a bit worried about him after his nap so I went to pick him just after he woke up and he was lying in the camp bed on the floor, I noticed every now and then his eye's flickering and then when I looked up I saw the fan was turned on above him and it was making the light flicker a bit so I think this was also setting off little seizures. We know that his eye's can roll up when he has had the "flashing" light test with his eeg (Very little or no alteration on his EEG though, nureo thinks that may be due to the location of his brain lesion) but I have not noticed the "strange" eye movements from a roof fan before.
I think I learn something new everyday from all of my kids.
Does anyone know any good site or have any info re triggers for seizures.
Thanks
Donna
