I thought about mentioning that-it does help, too.

I have been to that websit too when Indy started seizuring - he hasn't had one
for the past going-on-two years, they vanished just as mysteriously as they
started. Have you ever used occular compression? I had great success with
Indy in that it would shorten the actual seizure, and his post-ichtal period
was pretty much non-existant.
