My youngest daughter

I am begining to worry about my 3 (almost 4) year old daughter. Every now and then she rolls her eyes upward. (Just like my 9 year old does) And two year ago Rebeka was dignosed with seizures. I guess maybe I need to take her to her doctor and have it checked out. It worries me now that I know what can happen. Any ideas?

If she is rolling her eyes more than a average person can you should deinatly get her to a good neuroligist ASAP to be checked

Thanks!! She is not rolling them all the time. Just every now and then. But I am worried that it may turn into the seizures.

I agree with dave13- please have her evaluated by a neurologist, just to be on the safe side, and to stop your wondering and worrying!

I agree with the others, to be on the safe side I would have her checked out. But I do also know that as a mom of one child with epilepsy, it's easy to worry about the other kids too. I do ALOT of research, and for awhile I had myself convinced that my 3(almost 4) yr old was having seizures in her sleep because she jerks alot in her sleep, especially when she first falls asleep.

Keep us updated, and I will keep you all in my prayers, as always!

jerking..eye rolling are signs but do not woory too much as this causes stress depression and the last thing she needs is you out of order..so a check up is adviseable and I pray that she is in good health..

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
