VNS

On February 9th they will turn on Damonito's new VNS. They had to wait for a couple of weeks to make sure that his body didn't reject it. He's doing fine. He's developed a new type of seizure, myclonus, that are occurring in his sleep. These are muscle twitching kind of seizures that indicate that his Lennox Gastaut is progressing. The hope is that the VNS was actually helping these seizures that generally occur in his sleep.
