Son is 9 has cp and started having seizures a year and a half ago but they seem to only come every 6 mnthany clues why is it worth the side effect he?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May get worse: Children with cerebral palsy are at risk to develop epilepsy. As they mature their brains are more active, they sleep less, and there is more physical and mental stress. Even worse as puberty approaches. However, over time this will improve. Low dose daily seizure medication may protect, or an appropriate acute management at time of seizure.
