Febrile Seizure from high fever

Hi Dodi, I hope you get this message, if so email me your complete address so I can email you back. Anyway, I was told that he will grow out of them by the age of 5-6. The dr. said it's 50/50 chance that it could happen again. The Dr. said that he's seen some kids get only 1 in their life, while some get reaccuing seizures. I happen to have my son in my arms while he had the seizure so I was able to react immediatly. I had no idea what it was, he went totally stiff and his eyes rolled back and his mouth was open and he wasnt breathing. IT WAS THE WORST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. We quickly called 911 but luckily we had a friend over who knew CPR who took over the situation till the ambulance arrived. I wonder what would have happened if he had the seizure during the night without me knowing. The Dr. swore to me that "if" he was ever to have another one while I didnt see it. HE'D COME OUT OF IT ON HIS OWN..... i doubt that though, he was turning blue, my friend had to do CPR on him to get him breathing again. Right now he is sick with a cold and Im watching him very closly. The dr. told me when ever he gets a fever to give him Tylenol every 4 hours AND Motrin every 8 hours around the clock for 24-48 hours depending on how hight the fever is. I give him tylenol first then I wait an hour and give him motrin then I continue with the 4 and 8 hour doses. IT'S BETTER TO KEEP IT DOWN then to risk it spiking. Did your dr. tell you to do that? Did you actually see your baby have all those seizures? What did you do to bring the baby out of it. SCARY right? Try to email me, Im not sure if you'll get this. Lori
