The Main Doctor

Justin's main doctor came in and told us that he looked at the MRI and the tumor did not have a "huge change". We have no idea what that means, but will take it as good news. He said in light of the increase in seizure activity, there were two options; add another anti seizure medication or start radiation. Radiation would be 5 days a week, for 5 or 6 weeks, 120 miles from home. Justin said right away that he would like to try the meds first. The doctor agreed and so did I.

Great news; after being on the medicine just one day, all seizure activity stopped. Justin seems like his old self again and is much happier. He is still sleeping a lot and says he is dizzy all day, but that will probably go away as the doctor adjusts the amounts of each.
