My 14 year old son has been seizure free for 3 months. He was diagnosed with Lupus officially in Aug '09. Started having seizures Sept. '09 with partials. Started chemo Oct. '09 when he had a grand mal. Chemo ended Jan. '10, but seizures still increased over the next few months after Oct. Now, in the last 4-5 months he is getting better and stronger. Off Prednisone Sept. '10 and seizures stopped the same month. Off Propanolol Oct. '10.
Has anyone ever heard Prednisone causing seizures? Or Propanolol?

My son who is 7 has been diagnosed with having an ischemic stroke and now suffers with seizures. He also has elevated antibodies. We have tried 4 different seizure meds to try and keep his seizures under control and is not doing a very good job. Now the Dr wants us to try high doses of prednisone and we are a nervous. They also have been thinking he may have lupus. So if you have any thoughts or advice it would be much appreciated. mcdajoy@gmail.com
