Dear Dr. M K Lee,
I am an expatriate in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. I have a 8+ years soon (Tausif Hussain) who had cases of seizures which was diagnosed as cause of epilepsy and still under medication since he was 2 years of old. His EEG records that he has epileptic form of discharge, while we cannot see the seizures happening for last 3 years. His brain MRI – done first time at 20 months of age shows he has “Periventricular leukomalacia”
He also has developmental delays and thus need special support from both health (motor) and education perspective. Tausif he has been identified having challenge in vision, impacting his development in many ways.
With all these brief challenges, I would like to visit your clinic to get your support and advise on proper medication for Tausif. Please note he is currenly takeing Kepra 250 MG 2 times a day and Frishium 5 mg once in a day.
Since I am not familier with the country and medical services yet, apprecaite, plese advise how can I get your appointment
Sincerely Yours/Tausif’s Father.
