Hi,

i've just registered myself to this website after my son has been diagnosed with hemiplegia, and read a few interesting topics, his paeditrician said that the downfall of it is that he could get epilepsy

is this known to happen??

Hello
My son has had hemiplegia since bith and has not gone on to suffer with epilepsy (touch wood) i think i remember someone saying that if they have not shown any symptoms by the age of 5 they are not really likely to go on to have this condition.
Hope that helps
karen
