    10 weeks, when hospitalized for the onset of seizures. At first we blamed it on all the meds they used to stop the seizures and the meds for his MRI, but now I understand that while those made him really "stoned", the underlying issue was real.

    EDIT: Forgot the other part of your question-- a pediatric neurologist, and it was reaffirmed by an PT and physiatrist.

    It was obvious. He could barely move at birth and felt like cooked spaghetti in your arms.
