Welcome to the group!

Glad to have you hear but sorry you have to be here.
It is great that you are getting your son a second opinion. It does
sound like some kind of seizure to me...

http://www.epilepsy.com/101/ep101_symptom.html
How often does it happen?
Try to get the episode on video...also get an EEG a 48 hours one
would be better than just a 1 or 2 hour EEG since the seizure needs
to take place to see any results on the EEG.

Is the tracking problem cortical visual imparment? Do yu have a
name for it?

I was home schooling my oldest daughter, Payton, but with so many
therapies for Cayden and having a new baby now...we had to enroll
her is public school this year....she is in 1st grade...the only
reason I felt comfortable with putting her in public school is
because we do have a great school system here...it is the same
school I attened when I was in elementary....and she was able to
have a great teacher who our family has known for many
years....anyhow that is another story...

Again welcome to the group!
