An Update

We met with the pediatric neurologist on Tuesday who doesn't think Joshua's seizures are febrile. He wants to do an EEG and an MRI and sent me home with Depokote samples, which I should start giving if Josh has another seizure. He said the fact that they aren't occuring with high fevers and that the time span between seizures is getting shorter concerned him.

I'm still not entirely convinced that they aren't febrile. I have a friend in Israel who's son also has had febrile seizures with low (100.4) fevers, so that's reassuring. He hasn't had a seizure for a year and they never chose to medicate him for them.

Just waiting for BCBS to get us in their system before I schedule the tests. They said it usually takes 30-60 days to get new hires into the system, but had me fax some paperwork to hopefully expedite the process.

Thanks for all the prayers and good thoughts coming our way... they are apprecitated more than I can ever express!
