Mitchell's Latest Sleep Study/EEG

A couple weeks ago, Mitchell stayed the night at Children's Hospital for a 24 hour sleep study during which they monitored his seizure activity. He had been trending to have more of them and they mostly interrupt sleep. Boo!

The medicine he takes for seizures (Depakote) is at the proper level in his system so his neurologist is taking it slow in making any change.

We are to evaluate with a nutritionist whether to put him on a ketogenic diet which consists mostly of fat. He'd have to start on the diet in the hospital if we go that route. No word yet, but inexplicably after the study, he started sleeping better and having less visible and lengthy seizures. Go figure!
