No Meds
There is no medicine for Apraxia. My son was diagnosed with is when he was two. Shortly after his third birthday he started having seizures. We're still trying to get a concrete diagnosis but from what they tell me it can be two things. One, whatever is causing the apraxia is causing the seizures or two, the seizures are causing the apraxia. Good luck getting an answer. If you get one please reply.
