Praying as well.He’s moderate to severe on the autism spectrum. Sometimes it’s hard for him to communicate what’s going on. He told the teachers his eyes were shakey before he had it.
This is a first time for him.
**UPDATE**
Got the EEG results back. He has been diagnosed with frontal focus epilepsy.
The Diagnosis came from Nortons Children’s Hospital in Louisville. We saw his pediatrician today. Pediatrician thinks there may be a chance he could grow out of it.Praying for all of you. Question is this a youth type that he may grow out of or is it able to be treated with drugs. Have some friends going through this same thing. The doctors have yet to give a diagnosis and it’s almost 2 years now.
Prayers form us as well.
I remember sitting with my 10 month old DS while they ran those tests....
Please start keeping a medical journal with your little one. Sometimes the journal can help in finding patterns and spikes. If everyone keeps just a little bit of observation, once a month y'all could sit down and see if there is any unseen instances or comparable episodes.
Again y'all are in our prayers.
I'm thankful you have a diagnosis and as hard as it it to hear that, at least you know what you are dealing with.**UPDATE**

I would suspect they ALSO use the opposite, all fats, diet for other kids as well. With that one, PARENTS may buy in, but relatives have a LOT of problems not slipping the kid "some heathy veggies, etc".Praying for your son. Children’s Hospital here in Dallas uses Keto diet as a protocol for children with epilepsy.
Keto is NOT the opposite of "all fats" diet you're talking about.I would suspect they ALSO use the opposite, all fats, diet for other kids as well. With that one, PARENTS may buy in, but relatives have a LOT of problems not slipping the kid "some heathy veggies, etc".
There are a LOT of treatments being used across the whole spectrum for this.
