Well the Doc's got what they wanted.
His night dose of Keppra was cut in half, mix that with lack of sleep and Whamo!
A seizure.
A pretty bad complex-partial, but it was caught on EEG.
The plan as of yesterday was to stop the Keppra completely today and try to get a couple more events.
Plus an MRI.
I'm crossing my fingers that what was caught on EEG last night was enough.
I hate that were intentionally doing this to him :(
So we wait, it seems to take fourteen doctors to get one damn answer around here, so who knows what will happen today.
It was really weird/interesting watching the seizure play out with the VEEG in the room.
He was in bed playing games and I was in the ultra comfy bed chair(just a hint of sarcasm)next to him. I would occasionally glance at the VEEG screen and him while I watched a movie. All of the sudden I noticed his EEG looked odd/different. Like clusters of little mountains. Repetitive clusters.
I remember thinking, 'well that's weird.' As soon as that thought left my mind the EEG went crazy.
Filling with lines of scribbles ( best I can describe it without pictures.)
I turned back to look at Arthur, thinking maybe he was just moving around.
Nope....seizure.
The science side of me thinks how interesting it was to truly watch it play out on EEG and simultaneously in my son.
The mommy side?
F@&$king hates this!!!!!!!!!!!.................................
Dealing with this, watching him go through this. Takes all I have. I want to scream at this monster, the E monster, "GO AWAY!! LEAVE HIM ALONE! GIVE ME BACK MY SON!!!!!!" this sucks.
