Default Rozerem? Serious sleep issues

Ri has been having major sleep issues for months. We took her nap away, and had even started not letting her sleep all day with post icital sleep (unless the seizure was super bad) We have gotten suggestions from her neuro, we have used melatonin so long that it is like a sugar pill to her, does nothing. Only quiet activities before bed, no sugary drinks, nothing with any caffiene, no TV when it is bed time, quiet dark room, you get the point.

Today was her 8 year old check up so we talked to her ped about it She gave me some samples of Rozerem to try.

Ri has hit 51 inches tall and 55 lbs- No wonder my back kills me when I have to carry her around.

WE also found the cause of the seizure increase and high fever this morning, she had a really bad ear infection. Did this kid complain once about her ear hurting? NOPE, not once...

Before I give Ri the Rozerem I wanted to know if anyone elses kids have taken it? I am alsy afraid to give her anything that might increase seizures...
