The neurologist called me personally a few minutes ago--B's EEG is abnormal, just like Izzy's :\ Her abnormal activity is on the right side, temporal and central. B's are on the left, back part of the brain. Even though its a different area, its still a part of the brain that the abnormal activity can trigger seizures and with some of his symptoms, Dr W is pretty confident we are seeing focal seizures and is going to start him on Trileptal as well. S has a podiatry appointment in the morning in another building so we will just walk over and get B's script as well.
Its an odd place to be. On the one hand, you always hope the doctors find nothing, that everything is fine and there are no health issues. But on the other hand, there is a sense of relief that these things that don't seem normal have a reason and a treatment.
