Weaning again......


Arthur remains seizure free since our wean last year!!
(knock on wood)

Before his most recent neurology visit he mentioned he would
like to try weaning his Zonegran again. Gulp!
So we talked to the Doc about it and she said ok.
Decrease by 25mg a week until he is off and if something
happens, go right back to his original dose.

Last time, it was 50mg a month. Besides feeling off, he 
handled that wean ok. It was his choice to not wean anymore.
Arthur felt "off" enough that it scared him. Can't
say I blame him.



So here we go again....... will we wake....


the sleeping dragon??



We already did one decrease and so far so good. Per the info I found
online, Zonegran is completely out of your system in 63hrs.


So if that's true, Arthur's last original dose is out of his system as of yesterday.
Now his dose is lower then it has ever been since he became seizure free.
Can I get a Holy Crap???????



If he continues to have no problems we will decrease again this weekend......
Here's to hoping good things are in store for him
