Sean has made it home to NOLA after six days of appointments at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. His visit with three different departments was extremely productive.
The neuro team at Mayo did confirm increased fluid in the ventricles of the brain (hydrocephalus) through a CT scan and recommend shunt surgery to remedy it. The latest scan will be sent to a few other physicians before officially confirming a shunt surgery.
A repeat EEG was also performed. Those results will be used to help inform and adjust Sean’s anti-seizure medication moving forward.
Additionally, the physical medicine and rehab team evaluated Sean and believe it is important to continue addressing the hydrocephalus and seizure behavior before making any major changes to the physical rehab plan.
Sean, Sam, and Teri are happy to be home in NOLA and are also very grateful for the first opportunity to visit the Mayo Clinic.
Thanks for staying #SeanStrong!
