Still doing pretty well

We increased John's Lamictal to 125mg last Friday. It's been a week now, and I actually think he is doing a bit better. He still has a handful of seizures almost every day, but I think they are really getting smaller. It seems to me that he gets a little bit clearer each time we raise the Lamictal. I wonder if it may be calming his background activity.
We also started giving John fish oil again. We've heard time and time again how it can be beneficial, and many people give it to their kids as a supplement anyway. What made us do it was a small study that seemed to show that some kids actually had reduced seizures while taking Omega 3 supplements. It doesn't hurt anything, and John takes it fairly easily so we figured it couldn't hurt.
