SeizuresOur daughter recently began experiencing seizures and periods of temporary blindness. We are completely new to this type of problem and we are certainly not in a position to offer any advice. This is a very steep learning curve and we will try to keep this page updated as time moves on. All we can say is that this is most definitely not something that every autistic child will experience. If any of our readers can offer any reliable information regarding any known association between autism and epilepsy / seizures please could you let us know through our contact form, on the left of this page. Zoe began having fits in November 2008 and they are gradually increasing in frequency, with the most recent fit was on Saturday 6th of June 09, being followed by a period of temporary blindness. To date, Zoe has had two EEG (Electroencephalography) scans, which have both proved inconclusive and Zoe is having a 24 hour EEG tomorrow (10th June). Once we have some more information about this scan we will update this page. Updated 22nd June Zoe had a 48 hour EEG scan and this proved inconclusive. We are now waiting for an MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scan and an MRA ( Martin & Nicki 9th June 09 |
