What Causes Shaky Body In Children?
my eight year old grand daughter starts shaking for no reason... like shes freezing... gets real weak... sugar has been checked and drs cant figure it out
subsides after a few minutes.. my daughter says she acts like shes not as focused about her school work .. says shes getting dumber?
drs keep saying I need to see her do this... well thats kinda hard because it doesnt last very long.. but the attacts seem to be getting more frequent.

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
I think, he may have pseudo-seizure due to school stress. In that case,you should consult a psychiatrist and psychologist for his mental status examination. That would help to make a proper diagnosis. Treatment in his case depends upon the reason that lead to pseudo-seizure. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
