Looking Good

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.

  1. 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.
    She 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.
