My son had febrile seizures, starting at about 15 months I think. He is five now and just got over an illness with fever and did not have a seizure. So I think he has out grown them. They are definitely scary. We managed to have limited episodes with aggressive fever treatment. I am sure you will follow-up w your doctor to devise a plan.
My son has had them..after the first, they gave us a prescription for a rescue med called Diastat. He stopped breathing during his first one and this med will stop the seizure to start the breathing again. It may at least give you peace of mind to have this! Also, she'll probably be really tired after (if they didn't tell you that in the hospital). Hope everyone gets some rest tonight!

I'm so sorry. I know it's terrifying. My DD had one when she was a little over one year old. Thankfully, she's never had another one. I hope this is a one time thing for your DD too. Hope she starts feeling better soon!
