[quote=Anonymous]My son has partial epilepsy with absent seizures. The problem with absent seizures is that they are hard to diagnose by most people but often can be the precursor to much bigger seizure activity. In retrospect, we think my ds had seizure like activity for a while prior to his major episode of near constant seizures that led to a major neuro stay at the hospital. When activity is suspected, it really is crucial to get an EEG asap and if a teacher has documented proof of events that should warrant an EEG. So as a teacher, videotape it if you're allowed and mark down when, how frequently and the duration of these episodes. Also, get a second adult to see what your seeing. [/quote]
