Has anyone had a child grow out of having IS?
Mon, 01/30/2006 - 09:30Topic: Parents & Caregivers
My son has infantile spasms. He is on Topamax and Kolopin right now. We were told that there is still a chance that he may grow out of this condition. Could that be true? Has anyone ever "beaten" the seizures? Hoping for a brighter tomorrow.

Hi everyone. It's so sad having to watch my 14 months baby boy going through these seizures. He has infantile spasm. He is not walking as yet only Holding onto the sofa and walking but not by himself. I fiel so weak, frustrated and my only hope lies in my prays to the Heavenly Father to rescue and cure my baby so he can live a normal life. I dont how my baby has this IS because everything was good with my pregnancy and delivery.

This gives me hope for my daughter. She was diagnosed at 4 months. 18 months now as she is still having the spasms. I don't recall her doctor speaking about these injections. It may be worth a shot.
