My daughter has recently been put on Methotrexate. Of course Folic acid was added on a daily basis.(for unknown autoimmune disorder)

Before starting this I asked my daughters Rheumy if it would effect her seizure meds or cause seizures. He said the methotrexate would not lower her threshold for seizures.

When we got the meds, I noticed that the folic acid leaflet said if you had a seizure disorder then closer monitoring may be needed.

She started the methotrexate the Monday before last. So she's had 2 doses. She takes the folic acid daily.

I took her to ENT today because she seemed to have a sinus infection.
ENT gave her an antibiotic and musicnex D.

She said on the way home her sinus' hurt. But basically she felt fine today.
After we got home she took a nap. She was sleeping hard. She slept for about 4 hours.
I had walked outside. My son came and got me. My daughter was having a seizure.

She hasn't had a seizure in 3 yrs. Maybe longer. It's been so long, I cannot remember exactly when the last one was.

Now I'm worried. I'm afraid to give her anything tonight except her seizure meds. The only meds she's suppose to take tonight are the seizure meds and the antibiotic. Her head is hurting and has been since the seizure. She's light sensitive. She wants me to give her something for her head, but I'm afraid too.

I'm at a loss here. We were hoping the methotrexate would be the thing to keep her from flaring. Now I'm not so sure I want her on it with the folic acid.

I am calling the seizure doc first in the morning and see what he has to say. Then calling the Rheumy.

Not exactly sure what to do at this point.

Just worried.
