DS2 was diagnosed with epilepsy last November. He has had hardly any seizures since being on medication (only had about 4 before the meds TBH). He started having seizures last Thursday - just a couple, and again on friday. We slightly increased his medication on Friday evening and he had none over the weekend.
Yesterday he had 15 long absences, with some twitching on his ride side, and eyes fluttering from left to right.
He has had one today where he kept going into a seizure, coming out and going back in again - lasted about 10 minutes.
What should I do?
I have rung the neurologist, but she hasn't returned my call yet (hoping she will after clinic today).
He is aslepp now - absolutely knackered poor thing. I feel like a complete novice as he has had so few seizures previously. What would you do? Take him to hospital or wait and see how he goes?
Any advice gratefully recieved
