We have had problems with my 5 yr old son since he was about 18months old and today I took him to see a new doctor who diagnosed him with complex partial seizures on top of his ADHD. In the past I had always been told that my son had ADHD. But I've always thought there was more to it. 95% of the time he's like every little 5 yr. old boy happy, bouncy,noisy. But every now and then from no where he'll have a rage fit which can last anywhere from 10-20 minutes. He becomes extremely aggressive and uncontrolably strong. After one of these attacks he goes very quiet and then acts as if nothing happened. The doctor told me that this could be a partial seizure. Has anyone had any similar diagnosis for this type of behavior? It just doesn't sound to me what I read everyone describing.
Any comments appreciated.
