My son, whom was 2 1/2 at the time we found out he had epilepsy. Shock it was to us. Since neither side has had it. They told us that he has had it since birth. He has had 1 mri, 6 eeg's. And they have changed his meds 6 times.He was on valporic acid and now depokote sprinkles.His last level was @51. ( doc wants it at 50-120)his nero said .... Well just wiat and see if he has any more and if he does bring him in and then we will check it again and then do an eeg. Why wait till he has seziures. I find the sprinkles in his poop ( not yet potty trained)does any one know why it would be in there, is this why his level is so low. He eats enough. He takes it 3 times a day. Hes on 125mg. Hes not due to see nero till march. And he is the only nero that takes our insuranse that is close by, and atlanta is 2 hrs away.Had a wonderful nero from where we moved from . But thems the breaks. Thanks Crying or Very sad
