First Perm or EEG for Nickolas??




Nickolas has had "breath-holding" spells since he was about 5 mos old where he passes out and turns blue for as long as 30-60 seconds... which sometimes feels like an eternity. Anyhow at about a year old they were being followed by siezures. We ran all the necessary tests, Cat scans, EEG, and MRI along with bloodwork to rule out anything crazy... Luckily, they are totally benign and he should outgrow them by age 5. They are still scary at times, but we are getting used to them when they do happen. These pictures are from his EEG which he was a trooper at. Randy and I both thought it looked like he was having a perm because of all the cotton on his head :~)
