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 have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
