He has epilepsy problem start seizures when he was 6 months old.my neurologist suggest me to give him levipil twice daily now seizures are under cantrol but i m worried about his brain development he is rolling very well but not doing anything. Start physiotherapy . whats wrong pls give any suggestion or medicine.
Your child is too young to start any active interventions at this age other than controlling seizures by medication. Levipil must be continued to prevent seizures. He might also require a MRI scan brain to know the brain development at one year and if there is any underlying condition that requires urgent treatment. Your neurologist will be able to discuss the MRI findings and if anything needs to be done. Please follow the learning milestones of your child closely and consult a child guidance clinic. The child guidance clinic is a team of people comprising a psychologist, psychiatrist, pediatrician, neurologist and they will evaluate your child from more than one angle and suggest you techniques that you can use to help your child grow better and as normal as possible. Please do not worry.
