Today was a "very bad" day in terms of number of seizures episodes.
Charlene had 29 episodes altogether, with 3 clusters (defined as 3 and more within an hour). According to the nurse, we should have brought Charlene into hospital already, but we were very reluctant to do so, because she just came back home.
We also unsure what the doctors can do in the hospital... they probably would increase the medication and monitor her. Which could be done at home too. So why should we spend the money to go to the hospital? Dez's medisave had already been wiped out (5 yrs worth)... we don't want to go to the hospital unnecessarily.
After much discussion, we decide to increase topomax dosage to 5+5, which is within the neurologist guideline for us.
Lord, we commit Charlene in your hands. Please bless us with the wisdom and insight to know how to take care of Charlene.
