3yo referred for absence seizures

0 replies

Hello, my 3yo DS has been referred to neurology after multiple brief episodes of staring, being still and unresponsive, and being floppy if attempting to move him (legs collapsing if trying to stand him up, etc).

The thinking is that these are absence seizures so we have been given an urgent referral to paediatric neurology.

Has anyone else been through this - if anyone has any insight or information to share, would be grateful
