My neurologist thinks that I am having complex partial seizures. I have had both the regular eeg and the sleep deprived eeg and they both came back normal. She now wants me to do either the veeg or the 5 day ambulatory eeg. My part of the veeg would be about $500 a day- but after 4 days my insurance would cover the rest (so no more than $2000 which I could make payment arrangements for), the 5 day ambulatory eeg would be $850 out of pocket.
I am wondering if I should just go ahead and do the veeg since it would provide more information and I would stay until I had an episode? It is more, but if it is more likely to catch what is going on it might be worth it. I would love to hear from those who have BTDT or have advice. Money is tight here and I really don't want to spend itif I don't need to.
Thank you!
