I was on a bit of a downer but I'm more positive again now. She seems quite a bit better today albeit not completely back to normal so it could well be that the medicine was too high a dose for her to tolerate.

She's now on Lamotrigine half a tablet once a day and in 14 days we have to up it to a whole tablet. She has to continue on the Epilim until her dose of the new one's working and then they can start to reduce the Epilim to make sure it doesn't cause any problems. Apparently they can only make one change at a time to see what effect it has which makes sense.

We've decided that when we next see the Paediatrician we're going to ask him to refer us to a Neurologist. Just hope he doesn't take offence as he is nice but Olivia's more important. I just don't find that kind of thing very easy.
