Hi,
I'm glad to hear that the apointment went well with the neuro. If for some reason the seizure med (AED) doesn't work you can ask the Dr. to do a DNA test on your daughter and by doing this they can find out what AED's (seizure meds) will work the best for her with the least side effects.

Also take note that if bright colors or certain sounds can trigger seizures for your daughter. I found out that I was photosensitive which means certain colors triggered seizures for me. Some people also have problems with certain sounds and they will trigger seizure also.

I just resently found out that cell phones trigger seizures for me also. If a person is using a cell phone near me or even texting it will trigger seizures for me. This happens do to the frequency of the cell phones. I've learned to use a ham radio instead it's much safer and I can make phone calls long distance or local for free. Here's wishing you and your family only the best and May God Bless You!

Sue
