any advice while we wait for this tape to be fitted , every week around 4-5 attacks sometimes 2 a day and totally random

Hi its awful I had a small one tonight it lasted 15 mins mine normally go on for a couple of hours ive had to have a jab at a&e to stop it before its not a pleasant thing to have , they have said it wont kill me , shes so young as well to be dealing with it have u tried when it happens to lay her down on her right side and curl up in a ball x
LEFT side, NOT right . . so sorry about your daughter. If mine starts the rattle daytimes I have rode my bike around the farm getting bounced about. The one remedy I have found was a very rough ambo ride (ours dont seem to have shock absorbers), the drugs didnt work, the shaking about of "me" did. I dont have anyone to tickle me but it did cross my mind that maybe this would have worked too. Wishing her the best of luck - - Jay.
Hey angelhark, just wondering, do you have anyone to hold you down and tickle you , need someone to experiment ? Because I am thinking that would be nicer for a kid, than dunking her in cold water . . .
Yes I m going to get my husband to try it , its worth a go xxx
