My son who is 5 yrs old. has run into a problem. Just 1 week ago he has developed seizures. He has had 2 so far. The hospital tells me that they were Gran Maul. The last one he had lasted maybe 2 or 3 mins. When the amubulance arrived he became none resonsive. They asked if there was a familyBirth control and family planning Choosing a primary care provider Ewing’s sarcoma Family troubles - resources history of diabetes. Of course I said yes. On both sides. They then took his surgar levels. It was 34. I then realized this was BAD. When we got to the hosp. they did nothing for him. Now I'm being told there is NO WAY POSSIBLE that hypoglycemia can cause a seizure. I need real advice from someone. They want to lable him as epiletic. Can someone give me advice! PLEASE
I want to thank you for this information. I found it very intresting. Also I started to check his surgar a little. I have noticed that it goes rather high for my liking. The last time I took it in the morning as soon as he woke up it was 120. I don't know if thats good or bad BUT his doctor keeps saying he is fine. I also took it that same day before dinner (with no snacks in between lunch and dinner) and it was 176. How bad is that? But I wanted to thank you.
