Jordan's home


We are home. Jordan had a 24 hour video EEG and we were able to catch quite a few episodes on the monitors. Jordan also had a ct scan done when his EEG was finished. Just before that, he did have a pretty big seizure requiring Diastat. We left and had a good drive home with no traffic issues. When we got home Jordan was continuing to have more seizures. I placed a call to his doctor and she said to give another Diastat, and Klonopin (another med to stop the seizures.) She also increased his Topamax again. So far he seems ok, no seizures but very sleepy.

He did good during the process. He didn't mind it all so much but was sleepy from the seizures & medicines. It seems all he does lately is have seizures & sleep. I was told it will take a bit of time to go through all the results & the doctor will call back with the findings. Most likely not until next week. The picture above is when he was having his turban taken off & he was getting excited, he started laughing and knew he was going home. He did get a bit perturbed when we tried to put him in the ct scan machine, then I think he got scared & shortly there after started with the seizure. All is good now. The medicine stopped the seizures & he is resting comfortable.
