Oopsy - regarding my post on 'Activities??'
Sun, 11/12/2006 - 20:52My apologies,I just realized I should have read some of the earlier posts on seizures caused by activity. Good thing I told you I'm new here, LOL.
Now that I've read through some of your similar experiences, it is making more sense that my son Mark's triggers could be activities.
My concern is, though, that it takes such a tiny bit of exertion to produce the seizures. He did a bit of grocery shopping and then in the middle of putting them away, he had one.
Do you think a bit of tweeking of his meds might help? He is currently on ValProic and Lamictal. I just hate adding more to the mix, as he is already quite subdued as it is.
Again, thanks for putting up with this Newby's goof. Diane
