#Autism, Seizures and EEG'S: Elliott explained

Alright,  we have received clarification as to what the heck is on with Elliott.  Elliott is experiencing some abnormal electrical activity,  however,  they *are not seizures. *

It was explained to us that kids on the #Autism spectrum are at a higher risk for seizures activity anyway.  However,  in Elliott's case, the abnormalities are not producing actual seizures.  They also said that he may develop seizures like Gavin, as he gets older.

So that's where Elliott stands right now.  So just to recap,  the shaking he is experiencing is *not* seizures.  It's his body dispensing with excess energy. I don't know if that's *normal* but at least it's harmless.

They are going to be monitoring him as he gets older because he is at risk of developing seizures as he gets older.  However, for now, he is okay and we are extremely grateful for that.  :-)

Thank you again for all the support.  :-)
