3 Year Old Was Just Diagnosed. What Can We Expect?

Wed, 01/18/2017 - 21:27
Hi My 3yo son was just diagnosed with Complex Partial Seizures. We are waiting on an MRI and a 72 hour EEG. We have had a really hard time catching the seizures and usually only see them afterwards where he is either awake but unaware of what is going on around him or he is completely unconscious and unable to be woken up. This is all new to us. Any advice or what we can expect next or as he grows? Thanks

Thanks for sharing Joe, we really want to do what we can to keep him safe but I know that he needs to grow and live his own life too.
