We started amoxicillin last night, and she's still not really showing symptoms. Mom can detect some pain somewhere in the head, and she has been leaning to her right a lot (right ear is infected). But so far it looks like we may be on the road to curbing this infection before it gets a footing. She has not had a fever today.
Still extremely wobbly and drunk on diastat. It'll take at least another day or so to get out of her system.
I should hear from the neurologist tomorrow, when she gets back from vacation. We'll have to discuss the keppra taper and finding a new rescue med.
The antibiotics have nipped the infection in the bud, and she has no symptoms. So this is the first time in over a year that we've been able to see how a seizure affects her w/o her being weighed down by sickness.
ReplyDeleteShe got over the diastat drunkenness Friday, but she still has a lot of tremors and some twitchiness and "off eyes" 5 days after the seizure. Across the board, her skills have stepped backwards a bit. I expect another week or so to get back to baseline again.
