(Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome.. not sure if its spelled right.)<br />they were able to diagnose it by what you call a 'turn table test' <br />Talk to your doctor about it, as it will not show up on the test she just had.<br />it's nothing serious and mine is easily controlled by a diet of gatorades and powerades to keep my blood pressure up and regular.<br /><br />Hope this may help.. i can understand its scary... good luck!!!!<br />Let me know if you have any questions about it.. a simple wiki read can give you some info.Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10770760504839447383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-44076188252222325802009-10-03T19:38:30.418-04:002009-10-03T19:38:30.418-04:00Glad you decided to go to the show!

I've been to so many awesome concerts at the Newport, it's one of the things I miss most about Columbus :) I totally was at the Flaming Lips/Looper show in '99 and it was awesome :) <br /><br />I'm sorry you are going through this with Olive, but so glad you found a great doctor's office and she did well during the testing! I pray for great test results and that whatever caused that episode to happen, is healed and doesn't happen again! I pray that you and David have a peace about the situation also! I know how scary it is when your children have to go through medical troubles like this.Jennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-41611316545367721472009-10-01T15:15:12.589-04:002009-10-01T15:15:12.589-04:00this is the first time that olive has been to a do...this is the first time that olive has been to a doctor (besides my dad who is a chiropractor) she has been healthy as a horse her whole 2.5 yrs on this earth and im really grateful for that. this situation however, motivated me to see one because as a mom, i really needed that professional opinion.<br /><br /><br />thanks for all the prayers guys! tomorrow is going to be stressful!!Olivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520966443612804862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-82322139992045700152009-10-01T14:17:50.771-04:002009-10-01T14:17:50.771-04:00my 2 and a half year old daughter has been having ...my 2 and a half year old daughter has been having the same "episodes" every few months since she was about 9 months.

I just wanted to say I've had seizures since I was 4 years old and they are a lot scarier to look at than they are to have. I remember EEg after EEG to try and get a diagnosis (never did) and they're a faff, but not at all uncomfortable. I'm sure Olive will take it all in her stride :-)<br />TashNat Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08424799085246705560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-88053646604722219252009-09-30T22:34:02.152-04:002009-09-30T22:34:02.152-04:00my son, a two-year old, had a similar episode this...my son, a two-year old, had a similar episode this summer at the public library. his reaction was so traumatic for my husband that they called an ambulance and went to the e.r. however, turns out it was just a "breath holding episode," which is really common in young children and looks frighteningly close to a seizure (a screaming mouth expression but with no noise coming out, limp limbs, etc.) you might look into that as well. <br />LenoreAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-44611322239176109882009-09-30T20:59:24.066-04:002009-09-30T20:59:24.066-04:00that sounds like a scary episode with olive! i am ...that sounds like a scary episode with olive! i am definitely praying for you and her, and that they are able to get the information they need at the EEG. i know it's little consolation, but i will say that our experiences with children's hospital have been pretty positive. (a couple of tests, ER, and getting ready for an upcoming surgery) i'm not a fan of lots of medical intervention, but they're pretty good at figuring out exactly what is going on...amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07150486668935089763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-14184748293915203262009-09-30T20:33:00.372-04:002009-09-30T20:33:00.372-04:00yeah the crowd was really dancing up a storm at th...yeah the crowd was really dancing up a storm at that part in the song.Olivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520966443612804862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-35371056356724499992009-09-30T20:27:16.785-04:002009-09-30T20:27:16.785-04:00Oh my goodness I LOVE Passion Pit.

Not fun at all. Epilepsy runs in the children in the hubs' family. Specifically a lot of absence seizures, which sounds like what Olive had if she had one. All have grown out of it around puberty with no ill effects, one had to take meds briefly. I hope and will pray that Ms. Olive will be just fine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30350133.post-59725122519643656542009-09-30T18:23:32.616-04:002009-09-30T18:23:32.616-04:00So glad you went to the show, even alone, and had ...So glad you went to the show, even alone, and had a great time! Sometimes, going alone is the best! Sounds like it was awesome!<br /><br />Really hope little Olive is okay. That had to be really scary, but it sounds like you are in good hands and have found a great doctor.
