Hi All,

I am very thankfull to every one personally. I have consulted my doctor. He told its obsolutly normal for kids in their younger age and it will be stop automatically. As he told after two days it stopped also. He is perfect now. I am very happy. Once again thanks for all.

Call your son's pediatrician! This is a great site for sharing but if your child has something medical going on like fever and shaking the *first* step you really need to take is to call the doctor.

Get a strep test- a rapid swab and 72 hour culture. Strep can cause neurological issues and tics. Go to the doctor ASAP.

he could be having petite mal seizures - you need to get him in to the doc and also videotape the thing in case it doesn't happen in the doc office - they will need to SEE it in action

my son had febrile seizures due to fevers when he was younger. get it checked out but if he's diagnosed with febrile seizures...it's really not something to get too worried about. it's actually the brain's way of protecting itself and he will grow out of it.

please update and let us know how he is. i will be praying for him in the meantime.

I would call your dr and take her to the er so she can have a scan for her brain to make srue they aer not cause from febrile seizures. sounds like it but you need to prove it with the eeg waves so they can treat her and be documented. hang in there but please get medical attention.
Did he have any shots or just sick?
