Katie, THanks for the info. I think from looking at the web page
that it could be the drop attacks. His first episode was the end of
Aug. We have been to a neuro, but we are going for a second opinion
on Tues. It just feels like a very long time not knowing what it
is. The episodes are a little over a week apart. Yesterday he had
the episode I told you about, but then last evening I called him to
help clean off the dinner table and he said things got blurry so he
sat down and it went away. Another time he came in from playing in
the snow and was standing at the door way. He was looking funny and
rubbing his eyes. I asked him if he was ok and he said in a calm
voice " I only see half of you" I told him to sit down. That was
not an usual episode, but now that I think about it, it could be
something related.
Thanks again, Annie

everyday and we can't seem to find anything to stop them. We have
controlled the ones that were triggered by him touching things and
the eye rolling/arm flying ones he would have when he woke up but
these past couple of weeks he's been having more of these quick
little seizures where his head will drop when he's sitting and his
whole body lets go, if he could stand I'm sure he would fall. We
see his neurologist on Thursday for a check up and to discuss
options with the seizure meds.

It sounds like a seizure to me but I'm no doctor!
