need help

My sister is almost 15 and just had her 4th seizure and this time it was a bad one. She just started have them about 4 months ago. She hasnt hit puberty yet so I think that could have something to do with it. She has seen several doctors and they all say something different infact the nurse pract. is the only one that made some sense. Does anyone have any experiences or suggestions on this.

Re: need help

Hi

My daughter Bonnie has had seizures since she was 8 (diagnosed then, had them for years before this). She is now 14 1/2. Hers were controlled for years, until she hit puberty 2 years ago. Have had problems controlling them since then.

Your sister may be fixing to hit puberty and that's what's going on. It is common for this to happen. A lot of females have more seizures each month at that time.

Is your sister seeing a epileptologist, nero who specializes in epilepsy? That would help.

This is a wonderful place to get info. Best of luck.

Debbie
