Depakote Begins

Today, Bertrand had a seizure-y day at school and at home. He was still in high spirits, smiley, and very awake, however, a particularly long cluster of myoclonus was the last straw. Rather than wait until tomorrow, I started his 125mg of depakote this evening. We'll be monitoring him closely over the next several weeks and his blood levels will be drawn in a week. Our fingers & toes are crossed.
