Hello all, I have'nt posted on here for a while now,i just wondered if there was anyone who has been through a similar experience with their child and what the outcome was.

My dd is 4 and has global developmetal delay, speech and language problems, and has a lot of obsessive traits. She has recently suffered 3 seizures in the last 5 weeks, and we are now awaiting an eeg at GOSH Hospital at the end of this month. Two of these seizures were with no temperature so we're still unsure what is causing this.

Cannot help but feel really worried, as it just seems that dd is suffering one thing after another. She has been tested for a number of things in the past as to why she is around 18months/2 yrs behind with her development, all proved negative.

She also does a lot of odd things like collecting and hoarding her toys, and always has to have more than one of everything, she finds it very difficult to interact with other children, and seems to find being in adult company more satisfying. She has a thing about buttons and zips, and any spot of dirt she has on her clothes sends her into having a tantrum. She tends to rock when sitting too.

If there are any mums out there who have had or are going through a similar experience, please drop me a line.

Many thanks.
