ASAP
Can someone explain to me what happens when
my son goes into TONE or Extension. It's something he can't help says his Dr
since he is mute and a quad since his Brainstem stroke. Dr says he has 3
choices, laugh, cry or go into extension when he gets frustrated.She says that
too many electrical impulses go to his brain at the same time and it causes
it. However some of his caregivers says he is spoiled and throwing a temper
tantrum. There was a site where I could get info about this sort of thing but
I forgot the name of it. Help please.
He is 41 and 4 yrs post stroke.
Is there a medicine for this?
