Guest guest Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Hi , First let me say how sorry I am for you and your Daughter, seizures are frightening, and often had to control. How old is your Daughter, seizures often surface when hormones come into play. There are a TON of seizure meds out there. My son who is 20 and started having seizures at 18, takes a combo. of Depakote and Lamictil and has been seizure free for almost two years..............still I am always waiting for it to happen again. The Depakote works well for behavioral issues as well as seizure management, but, of course, everyone is different. I wish you luck, Ruth Autism & Epilepsy Is there anyone out there who has an autistic/epileptic child? My daughter started having seizures over Memorial Day weekend and it's been a NIGHTMARE since. I need some guidance...parent to parent. She's on her second medication and she's become a terror. She's gained weight, she's taking off her clothes, she runs around speaking gibberish (she has emerging language, but seems to have forgotten how to use it...hence, "gibberish"). She will not listen to directives and is in and out of awareness. She still has mild short seizures, and due to the behaviors, have had to lower her dose. I would appreciate any input. Thanks, B.
