HI
I'm in same boat. My daughter is 9 and has had siezures since april . They started once a week went on for 5 weeks then stopped for amonth and now has had 2 more a week apart. All test are normal. The dr just started to push Keppra even before she had a mri.All the drs tell me is we need to medicate to control the siezures but they only happen once a week and i dont feel that the side effects out wiegh the siezure . Dr tell me it's not strees related but when i spoke to school and we cut back on pushing her to study for standardize testing we went 5 weeks without one. I also feel that there is something enviromental and i have been wracking my brain trying to figure it out. We are in Texas. NO electrical storms we are in a draught. We have had bad allergy problems this year. Best wishes Donot give up the fight!!!
Hi,
my youngest daughter has epilepsy, has done since birth, she's now 7, and I've spent a lot of time in hospitals over the years. One of the times she was admitted, I commented on how many children there were with seizures on the ward, and she said that it was really strange, because there are definitely times when seizure activity is heightened and the ward is full of it. I can't for the life of me remember what time of year it was, but have you had any electrical storms recently?

Sometimes people will just have one seizure and never have anymore.
My daughter had a seizure back in 2007 . We had the tests which came back clear then as more things where happening we had a sleep deprived EEG which did show up epilepsy. I do have an uncle who has epilepsy.
As you have been given the all clear, fingers cross no more seizures will occur.
I wish both your daughter and yourself good health.
