Max Dosage

Yesterday, on Sophie's first day of Kindergarten, I finally heard back from the doctor.  Her blood work was normal and we're upping her one dose at bedtime.  So, Monday after her first day of school we gave her three pills at the end of a very long day.  My daycare provider sent me a text today that she saw numerous seizures and that Sophie was very hungry!  Every time we've upped her dose, she's responded with ravenous hunger so I'm not really surprised just concerned about how it will affect her tomorrow.

Luckily, she fell right to sleep tonight, so hopefully she'll be well rested for Kindergarten tomorrow but she may still be hungry.  I emailed her teacher tonight to let her know that Soph's dose has gone up but in the mean time she may notice seizures and that she will notice Soph's hunger for sure.  So, I've packed: a pair of Swiss cake rolls, fruit snacks, a go-gurt, mandarin oranges, raisins, a turkey and cheese sandwich, a plum, a blueberry breakfast bar, and a danimals smoothie...hopefully she'll make it through the day.  We've talked about this with her teacher already so she is aware that Sophie may need extra snacks, hopefully her fellow class-mates are as okay with it as her teacher is.

Thanks for caring!
