[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry to hear this is happening to you. This is an unusual amount of disruptive behavior in a kid for these three diagnoses only. My one comment would be to insist on food if you can—the kid may be hungry and need raw almonds or another healthy snack. Hungry kids are terrible.

Hope vacation goes better. [/quote]

He has EPILEPSY. Read the post. Epilepsy diagnosed at this age is entirely different. [/quote]

How so?

Epilepsy sucks but it doesn’t cause behavioral issues.

Epilepsy, and responses to epilepsy meds look incredibly different from child to child.  The fact that it didn't cause behavioral issues with your kid doesn't mean it doesn't for the next kid.

Got it.

Guess our whole extended family of epileptics got lucky. Only the people with ADHD had behavioral issues. Along with the non-epileptics with ADHD.

If your whole entire family has epilepsy it’s probably genetic and therefore they all have the same cause.   But the causes and symptoms of epilepsy are varied.  [/quote]

I’m sure there is a genetic factor, but we do have many different flavors of epilepsy and ADHD (and debilitating migraines). Lots of glitchy brains.

Hope that OP had a better day/evening. Sorry that it’s so rough. Were you able to rest your back?
