The girls have the same type of seizures you are describing. Their eyes

flutter very rapidly. We see a large number of these daily. Unfortunately,

we haven't gotten a handle on them. The girls also have generalized

seizures when they are sick, especially with a fever. They also have an

occasional myoclonic seizure.

Has had an EEG? 400mg is probably a normal dose for a child her

size. Our neuro is really trying to push the Keppra to the max instead of

adding a new med in. They are currently on three different meds.

Let me know how the Keppra works for her. I hope it will control them!!!

Good luck!
