[|Human|] My son started having seizures age 6, he was placed on 2 different meds that worked well for 2 years (no seizures) Then they started back, but not as severe as before. Now he can stay on his feet, he makes a humming noise, goes sort of limp, his head drops, and his arms hang and sway side to side, lasts between 20-45 seconds. This has been happening more and more often and his Neurologist is telling me that this isnt seizure activity. What is going on here?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thank you for posting your query. I have noted the symptoms of your son. To me, they sound like seizures. If your neurologist feels that they are not seizures, then, what is his diagnosis? The diagnosis can be clarified by doing an EEG, especially a prolonged video EEG. If he has these abnormal movements and the cause is seizure, then, the corresponding EEG would be abnormal. If they are not due to seizures, then, the EEG would be normal. I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow-up queries or if you require any additional information. Wishing you good health, Chat Doctor. Ly/
