Gelastic Seizures?
Just back from the neurologist.. My sons laughing may be a sign of seizure, gelastic seizure, anyone ASD kids have this diagnosis? How do you help them before we are fully diagnosed? Any info on it would be great, thank you
My son is 13 and the uncontrolled laughing has been worse lately. About for 3 months. I first noticed it the year he was diagnosed when he was 10. I just researched and read about galestic seizures with Autism. I don’t know what made me search and I’m really glad I did. We see his doctor tomorrow and I’m going to let him know ask him.
It happened to my son in middle of the night two nights ago, and he was awake from 2am to 5:30 am. Mostly the laughing, he couldn’t stop.
It’s really frequent now.
It happens anywhere school in the store, it’s not something he can control at all.
Hope to get some answers tomorrow.
Internet always has so much info to sift through.
Thank you
