Febrile convulsion
by lorretta, Mar 05, 2007 12:00AM
My daughter is 19 months old and hsa had what we believe to be a febrile convulsion in the early hours of 28/02/2007. The symptoms were that 1, she cried out, which woke me up. 2, went very rigid, so I placed her on my bed. 3, when I placed her on my bed her arms and legs started jerking violently. She also went blue in the face. When at the hospital she had a high temperature. The hospital nevr confirmed if it was a convulsion. My question is, does the symptoms coincide with a seizure?

Is she scheduled for an MRI?
Best wishes.
No there wasn't mention of an MRI scan. It was her first seizure so I am not sure what the procedure would be. Whether they would investigate or not? There is history of Epilepsy in my family, though I have never had a seizure myself, my mum has had a couple of seizures and I found out at the weekend my brother had a seizure when he was 11. Could it be linked?
