I was never told that is what it was. My little Aeidan goes days without talking also, generally after heavy seizure activity or too much excitement (i.e. being in the sun). Laura

My 6 and half year old daughter is unable to talk at times after her seizures.. They said she has childs apasia bout the same thing your talking about. It takes up to 48 hours to regain her full functioning conversations back. But she does get it back.

Nancy,

Yes, my doctor knows this because my daughters call him or his stand in
after they have been called. He has never seen me when I can't talk. (It
usually happened on a weekend and he is not available) to see me anyway.

6 years ago I was admitted to the hospital and had an MRI, Ultra Sound,
CScan and an EEG. Then he thought I had a TIA (small stroke) but
everything happened like before. The last time 2 years ago I asked him if
it was a TIA or a sz. He thought it was a sz. He didn't see me either
time until Monday morning.

I usually go in Monday morning and he checks me out. By then I am talking
again but he can tell that I am not quite my usual self and I am not to
drive. Between my daughter and I -- we tell him what happened. (At least
what little I remember and whatever anyone else has seen of me). He sends
me to get a blood test to see if my meds are low.

You will have to remember I don't have many szs. My last one was 2 years
ago and before that it was 4 years.
