the doctor has told me that it is now time to think about decreasing

[2shoes]

dd's epilepsy meds..... arggggghhhhh
she also said that as it has been to years since a seizure we could wean her off them...

I have decide to decrease after Christmas(Christmas was always a trigger)

thoughts please

(dd is 15 and has CP)

Riven, I don't think I can't really answer your question as we never found out what was causing my sister's seizures despite every test going (obviously it was something to do with the brain but they couldn't say what even though she actually had a seizure while she was wired up to the machines). She had grand mal seizures though and we were told there was a possibility that she would 'grow out' of it (doc's words, not ours) which is what happened. That's all I know about it I'm afraid, sorry.

FioFio, well spotted - whitstable beach!
and
good luck to everyone weaning their DCs off the horrible drugs

good luck with it 2shoes and yep i would use as another reason to why dd needs to stay where she is as they know her so well there be able to look for slightest changes
