That's what we were thinking it maybe but he doesn't show any other signs of that besides the eye rolling devolpment wise he is ahead , any other ideas
My son had the same problem. We first noticed it when he was 12 months old. At 12-14 months old, it was quite bad. He also had low muscle tone in his lower limbs, which can occur with kids with seizures. We saw a neurologist, who ordered a bunch of EEGs, even a 24 hours EEG (a nightmare) and an MRI. That showed nothing.
He is now 26 months old. Still has the squinting/eyes rolling at times. And his upper body will tense, which may be a sign of seizure - that's what his therapist recently told us (he is followed by a developmental therapist because he is a little bit behind in speech).
We are thinking about going to see an other neurologist, but not very worried. He tends to have these symptoms when tired at the end of the day, so may be normal. He is otherwise full of energy and making progress every day.
I would recommend you see a neurologist to at least discuss this issue. That probably will help you feel better and the doctor will decide if tests need to be done.
ok thanks , sorry to hear about your little one, I know that the hardest thing is not knowing keep us posted : )
you were right that's what the doctors said he has and that he would out grow it
I am glad its very common and as the Doctor said he will be okay ..good news ..
Hi, we're going through a similar thing... Our daughter started eye rolling at 10 months old, she is now 13 months old. We've had 5 eeg, 2 of which were 24 hour and one MRI ... All the tests came back normal. sometimes she nods her head at the same time and at other times shakes her head. We managed to video it, which I'd recommend doing if at all possible and our neurologist is now showing a senior neurologist to get any other opinions. it seems to happen when she's extremely tired and will occur in clusters 3-4 times a day. She has had periods of up to 1.5 weeks where we haven't seen an episode. It doesn't appear that our daughter is doing it playfully, as she resumes her normal activity immediately after the episode and almost seems to be unaware that it's happened. Can infants develop tics? It feels like she's too young. She's normally a happy, bright character and is developing normally. I think these forums are great as you realise you're not the only ones out there. I really hope all our babies are well and we get a resolution soon.
Hello my 2.5 year old daughter has suddenly been rolling her eyes upwards for a few seconds. I have no idea what’s happening. We have been referred to see a neurologist and get an EEG but I’m am so petrified something is very wrong. Does anyone have any answers to this? The episodes are very brief and she resumes back to normal even talking through it sometimes..... HELP! Terrified mummy
