Hi I was wondering if someone could help
me
my son is 2 years old and he weighs 40lbs
he isn't over weight or anything and is
very active and eats well
every now and then he stands there and
looks into outter space and it is just
like he is not there, now I just realized
that starts shaking his right hand before
he does this.. Can anyone please help me
out is anyone has heard of this before.
We have gone to doctors test have been
done and nothing has been found yet,,

Well I have never heard of anything
specifically but have you been to a
pediatric neurologist with this problem?
Try that and see what happens take your
child to as many doctors as you can find
until somebody gives you an answer. Is
there a childrens hospital anywhere near
you? I would start there. Let me know
what happens. Leigh

There are several possibilities. Maybe,
there is a mild case of epilepsi, where he
becomes absent. Maybe some other
neurological disorder. Perhapse it is
nothing drastic and he just wanders of for
a moment, like think something to himself.
Everyone has experienced that one or
other time - I hope.
Don't worry to much too soon. Just take
your child to a pediatrician, a
nevrologist and try to get some naswers.
I have a friend who is epileptic and the
just stands there and looks absent its a
form of a sesure. I would have that
checked out at a childrens hospital look
on the internet for one in your state or
community and also remember that epilepsi
is very commonly mis-diognosed and
sometimes they cant accuretly diognose it.
Its not an easy medical condition to
see.
