Meds not working!!
Sat, 07/29/2017 - 22:45Topic: Medication Issues
Hi, my 3 year old has been having daily seizures. She is on keppra, depakote, ONFI and now zonegran. Her head just collapses for seconds and then she goes on with her daily activity. She was admitted 10 days to the hospital MRI and Ct have come out clean and we are still waiting on results. Meds are not working and I am becoming desperate. Any thoughts?
