My youngest daughter had a seizure this morning. Her urine and blood sample came back negative for drugs. She has a EEG and MRI scheduled for Monday. Is there anything I should ask staff or Dr. After tests are done.

She is 16 and me and my wife are very worried.

Wow, very scary! Glad there are no drugs involved. Was this a witnessed seizure?

For questions, I think you are probably seeing a neurologist. I would want to know the test results, a diagnosis, treatment, medications prescribed, and what you can do to help prevent future seizures. Unfortunately, my experience is the cause of seizures is often a mystery even after thousands of dollars worth of testing. I hope u all get good news soon.

Thanks for the response SixFive.

My wife and I both witnessed it at 5 am when were heard her fall out of bed. We are hoping for the best.

Medical Question for Six Five

Thoughts your way, jigs.
Nothing scarier than a child who is having health issues.
Please keep us updated on her diagnosis.

She has epilespy, way better than a brain tumour that what i thought could be. No history of it in our family so we are not sure if we are going to go the medication route. If anyone here as dealt with this, hit me up.
