He needs to see a Dr. Sounds like he is having seizures.

I would take him to the doctor. You mentioned no insurance. There are medical centers that are just for low income families. I'm not sure where you are in that area, but ask around or check the Internet. Places like this will base the cost of the visit on your income. Like this place that I go to charges me $10 for every visit, no matter what. So, if Iwere you, I would check into it. I wouldn't take a chance on my child's life. Good Luck!!

Check for a free clinic in your area. They have them everywhere. If not, go to a doctor and set up a payment plan and ask welfare for help, but seek medical attention immediately.

Get him to the doctor. Sounds like ear infection but can be an number of things that should be checked out by your physician.

Hi - I'm sorry that this has happened and of course it has to be very upsetting. I know that you mentioned that you do not have insurance right now, but I would call your local hospital and ask for their help. Let them know about your insurance situation, but tell them that you are very concerned about his health and let them know the situation. It never hurts to ask and if your particular hospital cannot help, ask if they know of another medical option. If your child needs medical attention, you may need to respond immediately. Please update me to let me know b/c I will be thinking about you and your son.

I'd definitely take him to the doctor as soon as you can. It sounds like it could be seizures.

Yes my first thought was seizures too. He needs to see a doc ASAP cuz my mom is a Registered Nurse and told me people who usually get seizures are usually getting them because they are sick. Get your kid to a doc ASAP.

He needs to see a doctor...don't neglect him because of insurance. Take him to a clinic.
