[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son and father have epilepsy. So, the issue is your child is going to have a seizure. A high level of activity means that under the right conditions the spikes will coalesce and form a seizure. You may not see it. It could be while he is sleeping. SUDEP is a real thing. The idea of the medication for epilepsy is that the brain waves are traveling on the wrong track. You need to retrain them. If you can stop them traveling down that track they often forget about it. It’s training the brain not to seize. In terms of development my son had just a ton of activity with few seizure for years. He didn’t make significant progress with reading or behavior until we finally stopped the spiking. Look into ESES. [/quote] +1 [/quote]
