It's just one big circle!

We had Kiera's Doctors appointment on Monday.
Just love this Doctor, he is so smart and seems to know just about everything!
He always takes ample time with us as I am sure he does with all his clients, but you leave there knowing that you have covered everything that needed to be covered.

Bottom line is that we are going to increase the dose of Kiera's birth control patch to try to get better control over her constant (or close to...) periods. We also hope that by controlling the periods better, we can control the seizures better too.
We talked about the edema and our appointment with her epileptologist and dietitian.
The epi told us that girls that take phenobarb and or a few other epilepsy drugs, might need a higher dose of any BC meds. also during the epi appointment we talked about stopping the lyrica wean for now to help to get Kiera more stabilized with her seizures, so this plan has then involved a conversation that we had with Kiera's dietitian about the extra weight gain and/or edema. Am I talking in circles yet??
So we are changing her diet in hopes to loose some of the weight.

After the period issue gets under control, we will again start the titration down from the lyrica.

Boy it's hard being a girl with epilepsy.
