kidneys/ seizure

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thank you for your question.

I am sorry your daughter is not well. I don't know which medical specialists you've consulted with so far. However, if you haven't done so already, it is imperative that you consult with a pediatric neurologist. At the very least, they need to control the seizures so she can participate in daily activities without worry. Once that is done, if the doctors you are dealing with still don't know what is going on, you should contact others. I don't know where you are from but you should find the nearest children's hospital and get in touch with them.

These hospitals are usually where all the latest research in diagnosis and treatment are being done. In the Northeast USA, these would be hospitals like XXXXXXX Children's or Children's Hospital of XXXXXXX
