Re:Help needed NOW/seizure?

January 13, 2008

The seizure thing could be from many causes. My " normal " daughter has had a

few. We had an EEG done & it only showed that she might be vulnerable to

flashing lights. After another couple of episodes of passing out & seizures at

age 15, we took her back to the neurologist, but no diagnosis, except maybe

low blood pressure & she needs to keep hydrated. Then another episode and we

had her evaluated at Children's Mercy. They did a tilt table test and found

that she was passing out due to standing too quickly and a sudden blood

pressure change. Once again they said to make sure she is drinking enough

water

and eating salty foods. I'm not a nurse or Dr., just sharing our experiences.

Did you say you gave her 200 mg of Melatonin? It should be 2 mg shouldn't

it?

Hi , yes I meant 2 mg. Wasn't thinking very clearly at the time. Just a

minute ago at 10:00 PM our time. said " up, up, up " , got up off the couch,

went into her room, took off her pjs and got dressed to start the day LOL. THis

promises to be a fun night.
