| Yup... you would be a good candidate. Rebecca's showed abnormality showed up on one EEG and not on the other four. What you need to be able to explain, to the clinician, is how your seizures typically occur. This gives them an understanding of where in the brain they begin. Neurofeedback is also used for migraines which are now classified in the seizure family, so there wouldn't be abnormal brain activity in that case either.... Well in my case there likely could be.. abnormal that is.

| Anyone can use EEG neurofeedback. Professional athletes use it to enhance their performances (seeking optimal performance). The first session you have should include a QEEG to map your brain activity. The subsequent sessions should be tailored to the results of the QEEG.

QEEG - is also known as BEEM EEG; full name is Quantitative Electroencephalogram, which is a computerized EEG. This is not to be confused with qEEG which is a lowercase "q" which is Quantum EEG which is an older computerized EEG (these came out before the QEEG). Just adding to Bernard's post to those who are wondering what a QEEG is. |

| Robin - After reading about how well things are going with your daughter and Neurofeedback, I have decided to do some research on it. The closest place to us is 61 miles from here. I just don't like the side effects caused by the meds. I watched the side effects of meds decrease my daughter's quality of life for so long. I don't want to see this happen to Nicole. Our next appointment with the neurologist is 5 months away and I want to have enough research so I can talk to her about it. |

| I did it before talking with our neurologist. I know I am a rebel. Ours is 34 miles, but I think I would drive 100 mi, now that I know the positive results. Bernard, I don't believe that the QEEG was done with Rebecca. Hers is called a QIK CPT Quote :

| Stacy's practitioner called her mapping session a QEEG, but I'm guessing it was similar to what you described. The important point is that they should do some sort of mapping to establish a baseline of what's happening in the brain. We also have to drive one hour to get to Stacy's neurofeedback practitioner (in good traffic). In our case, it's not so much the distance, but the fact that we have to drive through/across the city of Houston that makes the journey rough. We normally hit rush hour traffic on the way back.
