Seizures

Tyler has had two seizures within the past week, which if you know him that is on the increase. We usually only average about 1 or 2 a month. I don't know why he is having a sudden increase--I am guessing because of sleep. One was this morning--he woke up saying that his head hurt really bad. Tyler just doesn't sleep without taking the Clonidine. His pediatrician now wants him to do a sleep study to see what is going on and what is causing it. He also talked about putting him on Resperidal which is FDA approved for kids with Autism to help with his mood swings, his tantrums, his melt downs, aggression, and his "on the go" motor of a body. We have to have a call into the neurologist though because sometimes it can make his seizures worse or his tics worse (which I don't want). The tics have actually gotten better since being put on Lexapro. Seems like we take a step forward just to take one back.
