Hi sry for my bad english please help with this child age now 4 years 2 months, fullterm healthy baby, normal delivery baby. On april 2021 age: 2y 8m he got first seizure. Seizure is like unconscious no jerking found little blue or pink colour around lips and got admitted for 2 days eeg and mri got normal and suggested no medication and he got another seizure on may 2021. Seizure is like jerking movements bubbled saliva came from mouth lasted around 1 min 40 seconds and doctor prescribed with keppra 1.5 ml he is for almost 1 1/2 year seizure free until october 2022 on 8th october 2022 he got partial seizure like twichiness for around 8 seconds. Before 5 days from this episode he got severe cold cough and fever and used antibiotics to control. On this seizure episode day he danced a lot in marriage. On date 9oct he got again doctor added balloting 1.5 ml again 10, 11, 12 october he got partial seizures lasted around 5 to 10 seconds with jerky movements very day we are in notice of doctor he gradually increased the dosage of valparin to 3.5 ml on 13 october he got 2 min seizure eye balls up with jerky movements and bubble saliva from mouth. In eeg mentioned left centro parietal epileptic focus doctor added clobium 1.5 ml for 5 days he is fine and after again he started getting seizure lasting 5 to 10 sec around daily 2 to 4 times with jerky movements and he immediately recovers after 10 ses he continues with what he is doing. Doctor kept on increasing dosages slightly on 25 oct he got 6 times seizure in a row each lasting 3 to 10 sec seizures in that only one had jerky movements other are like staring to the sky. Doctor now added oxital 2.5 ml but he got two seizures daily but doctor said it take time work for medicine so be in patience. From 6 days he is getting seizure only in sleep at after noon just after sleep and early morning before wake up. Doctor suggested to decrease valparin dosage and after gradually remove valparin. We are in confusion what to do still he is getting single seizure in sleep afternoon and morning. Doctors are saying he is fine questions 1. Does it cause any brain damage will he get any cognitol deficit with these frequent seizures until now he is ok? 2. How long he will get these seizures? 3. Next action plan? 4. Some says it is benign epilepsy is it true?

Adenomyosis needs surgery if all other medications fail to perform and you are in excessive pain. Removal of ovaries might not be a possible treatment to cure adenomyosis. In such a case, removal of the uterus is the only option left with your doctor.

Brivaracetam can surely cause mood swing though less than levetiracetam. However, occasionally levetiracetam can cause less behavioral disturbances when compared to brivaracetam .there are many antiseizure drugs that does not worsen mood or anxiety like lamotrigine or carbamazepine. These two drugs rather stabilize mood. Alternatively, levetiracetam can be restarted after discussing with a neurologist as levetiracetam dose can be increased more that what your son was taking.

Dear sir
normally your doctor would switch you to oral form .if ypu have a form of epilepsy you will need medicatio to keep your seizures under control.
Take care.
