2yo Seizures

Hi all I have this case that has been concerning me about the lack of changes and am a bit unsure what more I can be doing. Ryan is 2yrs & 9month old boy who is having "attacks". We have had 2 lasting 30-40mins since he started care with us in November 2025. These attacks he is completely gone, still breathing but no response to pain, touch or anything. He has also had frequent ear infections and AB. Ive been adjusting cranials, sphenoid, everything I can find and to help stimulate the integration of his reflexes. He is gennerally with me quite docile although we are now starting to get more of his personality coming through now. He is now taking Iron daily.

I've included the hx summary below would love any tips.

CC:Ryan (19cm, 14Kg)has occasionally had seizures, the last two of which were severe.

No epilepsy? This has been ruled out by EEG.They think it may be a pain attack or cessation of breathing. He had had three minor episodes before and had a consultation shortly after birth due to

bleeding in the head. Epilepsy was suspected. He has outgrown it. From birth, bleeding on the head and consultations show epilepsy, which has been outgrown. And now occasional episodes. A total of 5 times now?

Dr visit: Last appointment with GP was not feeling well, thinking it might be an ear infection. Last time in hospital, admission, examination for fainting spells.

family hx: Cancer- lung paternal grandparents. Diabetes Type 1 Paternal

other s/s: Ear infection, Recurrent fever, Skin rash, Seizures

Physical Stressors: birth-hospital, epidural, planned vaginal birth, head 1st, vaccum. was in total 25hrs & 15 mins. born at 41w 6days weighing 3.6kg. Admitted to hospital on the second day after his birth. Two small haemorrhages were found in his head, causing him to have convulsions. He was given medication in hospital to rest his brain. He has not had any further convulsions.

Chemical Stressors:Midazolam is voorgeschreven, 5 minuten in de aanval neusspray geven. was never breast fed

Energy/Concentration/Mood- great, changes

Digestion- vomits from feeding

Sleep- good post attack completely himself, Still sleeps once in the afternoon, and sometimes not at all. At night, he sleeps from 7 p.m. to at least 7 a.m., unless he is unwell, in which case he is sometimes awake during the night.

Physical exam:Babinski absent L, skipppy ball no outstretch of arms, t-t-h good, C1L, ext hip, L5 L, PL sac, L sphenoid

Mum very concerned:Those seizures, what are they, can they be harmful? It's terrible to see as a mother... The last time after the attack, he didn't respond to anything, not even pain stimuli, he was fast asleep and had breathing pauses... it was terrifying.
