Hi Laura
His first in January; he was very limp - eyes rolling back & head. lasted about a minute or two.
His second was tonic - stiff posturing. Ended in his leg jerking a little and wetting the bed.
His third was stiff, hand extended & staring ... lasted 5 mintues.
He's on Keppra & it's not controling.
I don't know exactly what type of seizure is what. But one limp & two stiff?

> Hi, there! I think I got confused with your message and want to make sure I am reading it correctly. Did you say he has had "three" seizure episodes or three "types?" My 5 yo son has LGS, and it started at 3 1/2, but it takes a while and a certain EEG pattern to be diagnosed with it. Laura

> Hi!
> My son has been recently diagnosed with a Generalized Seizure disorder. I'm so scared because he's had three since January. Keppra hasn't yet controlled it. He has different types, though I really don't know the types other than his obvious tonic ones at night.
> I don't know what I'm going to do if we can't fix him. He's everything to me. He's 3 years old.
