Absence Seizures
My recently diagnosed 13 year old suffers from a lot of absence seizures particularly when he's stressed. Some of these absence seizures appear to last 10-15 minutes or longer. I thought they were meant to last for 10 to 20 seconds not minutes. Does anyone else suffer from long absence seizures?
Hi Jill, he has another eeg tomorrow so I'm hoping that will shed some light as to what is going on. 🤞🤞
we’ll be thinking of you and your son tomorrow! I hope the eeg gives you some much needed answers. Sending positive thoughts and well wishes, Julie (team member)
Hi
I do hope our community will chime in here with their personal experiences with this. A seizure lasting that long is concerning, I can understand why you reached out. What does your son's doctor suggest for this? Please keep us posted on what the doctor is saying. Jill (Team Member)
