seizure assistance dogs – An honest question on Islam?

Posted on May 19, 2012 by admin

A latest question created me wonder…

Does Islam allow for Service Canines? (IE- seeing eye dogs, canines for the hearing, seizure alert canines and support dogs for the disabled)
I am asking because service canines are extremely bonded with their people and are with them at all occasions (I have a service canine and he by no means leaves my side).

If canines are not allowed in the property, this would make a service canine virtually useless…

Are there exceptions offered if a service animal is required?

after seizure – How long after a seizure will abnormal results be detectable on an EEG?

Posted on May 19, 2012 by admin

I had a seizure 1 week ago. I have an appointment with a neurologist up coming Wednesday (almost two weeks from the seizure). If the neurologist administered an EEG, would the results still show an abnormality, or ought to brain waves/patterns (I’m not certain of the correct term) have normalized by this time?

I do not want to waste his time or mine. If an EEG is basically normalized two weeks after a seizure, I doubt I will waste my time. If there may still be some thing detectable which can figure out the reason for the seizure, then I’m more than content to invest some time and cash in it.

Thanks in advance,
~M~

Initial time he ever had seizures. He keeps complaining about pain in his right foot. He had four in a lapse of 7 hrs. He was fully mindful of what was going on. They only lasted about 45 sec. one minute later on he was back to regular. Appropriate after it occurred, he would complain of pain on his correct foot. Medical professionals in the ER say he could have epilepsy, but I have a feeling that it may possibly have one thing to do with his foot pain. Can nervous breakdowns lead to seizures in toddlers?
