My son had "staring spells" where he would be unresponsive prior to ASD diagnosis and febrile seizures due to very high fevers of unknown origin. After diagnosis& over the years they have increased & become a lot more frequent. He is noe on a seizure medication. I have noticed that before, during or after meltdowns he almost always has a seizure. It is unclear to Mr whether he throws himself into one from becoming so worked up or is the meltdown an aura of his seizures.

My son had his first seizure when he was 7....i think. It was about 2 years after his diagnosis. Although, as a mom I knew he wasn't 'typical' at an early age.

My son had seizures before ASD diagnosis.
