Day 13

Day 13

I know that 13 is not considered a lucky number and for today, that rang true.

James has had 45 - 50 seizures. I'm not sure of the exact number because somewhere along the way my husband and I just lost count. There were two separate occurrences. The first was at 8AM consisting of about 25 seizures and then again at 9PM consisting of another 25 - give or take. Both required the use of his Diastat prescription. Fortunately, the dose was enough to stop the myoclonic seizures and take him out of status.
Due to the seizures and the medicine, James was off all day. He was very tired and nowhere close to his usual routine. Also, he hasn't urinated today. Not once. He's had plenty to drink and doesn't appear to be dehydrated. Still, though, no wet diapers.  I'm going to have to keep a close eye on this because it's new, and strange. He has been having fewer wet diapers since starting the diet but never none. I'll have to call his PCP in the AM if nothing happens overnight.

Today was mostly cons...

Multiple myoclonic seizures continuing back to back for 10+ minutes at two separate occasions.
Had to use Diastat to stop both AM and PM seizure clusters.
No urination.

Pro ...
his rescue medicine worked both times it was required.
