Pam

Seeing a seizure is very hard. I know. I also know that you have
to live each day. So just remember he is back and dealing with things.

I would work on talking to him about how he can't dive in the pool but
maybe you could still go to the pool. Not sure though how you feel
on that.

I would definately call the neuro tomorrow. Not sure if it was 200 twice
a day or just 200 all day.

I think I have heard of folks taking a total of 500mg of lamictal but am not sure.
I am sorry that this happened, how scarey.

Awww, a seizure is so scary. I remember my son's first seizure and it was something I never want to see again. he did out grow his, they were febrile seizures. I pray the same for Jackie.

Did you get a hold of the doctor's office? Whenever my mom has a seizure now they want a blood test to check levels.

Nope they never returned my call so I am calling first thing in the morning. They need to get back to me right away on this because I need to see his dose increased before we refill his medication, he hasn't had a dose increase to compensate for his weight OR onset of puberty for like five years...He's been stable on 400mg a day and I think he needs jacked up a bit or something else added...I definitely am frightened by this. Thanks for the hug Sandy.

Pam

You definately want to have his blood level checked because 400mg
is a good dosage. But because its all he is taking it might not be enough.

Or he might need a small dosage of something else added too.
