A Little Improvement

Her levels of the seizure meds that were only being given until the other got in her system went down a little over the past 2 days. She still does not have it all out of her system but it helped her stay awake a few hours Friday evening and awake for 8 hours Saturday. She is having a little leg twitching but nothing for a long period of time. We are unsure whether they are muscle twitches or if they are seizure activity. The neuro had said they did not want to give her ativan to stop seizures unless they last 10 seconds or more. We are unsure whether if maybe the Keppra seizure meds that she will stay on is a high enough dose now that the other is getting out of her system. We will have to keep eye out on it.

The fluid she has been retaining from the leaky vessels seemed to be improving some especially Saturday. Her face is just about normal now and her hands have finally gone down some. Friday night her hands were still puffy but not as tight. Yesterday they had gone down a lot so you can even see her knuckles. Her feet are still puffy today although not as tight. She seems to be slowly making progress although I hate to say that too loud.

When she saw both Jeff and my dad she asked both of them to take her home. Please continue to keep her and us in your prayers. We hope that this is just muscle twitching that she is still having or that the dose just needs to be adjusted. From what I understand this seizure medicine that she will be on at home is the best one in not making them tired. I think it can still be moved up some if needed.
