Good luck Trace! Are you going to LGI? We have a lot of confidence in Dr F if that's who you see - mind you, most times we see a Registrar now rather than him which has caused all sorts of lack of communication!

Missed this one last night! Good luck for today Trace.

thanks everyone he says he thinks she as Channelopathy caused by sodium imbalance and BENIGN PAROXYSMAL TORTICOLLIS was very pleased to see her as the BENIGN PAROXYSMAL TORTICOLLIS is very unusual and was fascinated to watch the videos we gave him. but i got upset watching them again not nice seeing her like that no matter how many times we see it!! at least we have an idea now whats up but its where to go from here?

fatzak yes it was and yes he was very nice and good hes going to do some research and get back to us. how did you go on at london?

I'm glad he has some ideas Trace. I think he really is a top dog in the world of seizure disorders.

PET scan went fine - DS just got on with it as usual! Managed to fit in a whistle stop tour of London as the hospital is right opposite Big Ben! We are now just waiting to hear which is always the worst part.

trace2 · 30/07/2009 17:26

glad it all went ok and at least you made the best of it while you was there! and yes the worst part is waiting do you know how long you have to wait? please keep us informed ?
