Advice re DGS after strange episode at school

Cherry, you certainly know your stuff. Of course you have to, in order to keep get the best treatment and keep yourself as well as you can.
Just like today, I had to tell the replacement phlebotomist, what blood checks to ask for.

I hope you are having the best day possible. ?

Thanks Marydoll. Hope you are feeling a bit better.

Teachers see all kinds of behaviour from a lot of different children. A whole range of normal that wouldn't worry them.

So if she is concerned enough to contact the parents it means his behaviour was out of that range and definitely needs to be checked out.

I am a teacher. This is not normal behaviour... I urge you to get it checked out. Better to be safe than sorry.

Nandalot I am wondering how your DGS is now and whether any more strange behaviour has been witnessed. I hope not.

He should definitely see a doctor. I suffer from epilepsy both grand mal and petit mal and have on occasions just forgotten where I am. The sooner he has tests to ascertain the problem the easier it will be to sort out. I start with these at an early age but did not have a public attack until the age of 17. It is not something I have had to worry about as it is under the control with medication but I just wish it had been sorted sooner

Yes my daughter when when she was 4 or 5 was diagnosed with petit mal and she would just do things automatically without knowing why. One was crossing roads and it was a nightmare if I took her out. Sometimes she just sat or stood as if in a world of her own and then suddenly carrying on with what she was doing. Suggest you seek medical help
