Sorry, no advice, just bumping for you.

Is there an epilepsy helpline you could call for advice?

Sorry not to be of more help.

Do you have the number of the paediatric dept at the hospital - if so i'd call and see how long it will be until you see a Dr. Or next time he has one take him to a&e.

My nephew who is just 4 weeks old has been having seizure type episodes in his sleep. GP said it would take a month to see a paeditrician but when my sister spoke directly to the hospital they saw him the next day. Thankfully its turned out to be something fairly minor that he'll outgrow.
