Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

EEG/MRI: Your daughter had a history of epilepsy and this may represent a recurrence or a new onset of a muscle disorder. It is imperative that she be evaluated by a Pediatric Neurologist. Her eyes should be examined, and please rinse her eyes in saline or lukewarm water to remove any possible irritants such as dust. If she has a history of allergies, please provide one dose of a children's antihistamine.
