veeg

So I know I posted a few months ago about how I was upset because it seems that doctors were tossing my diagnosis around and I got responses from multiple people so I thought it would be rude to not update. I had a five day video eeg without any events. I was exercised on the bike three times a...

After an annoying five day V-EEG, I have so much glue stuck in my hair. The problem is that my hair is extremely thick and it won't come out. It took ten washes with a 24 hour EEG. These "Oh just let conditioner or oil sit in your hair for 30 minutes" does not work! I even let conditioner sit in...

So I sucked it up and scheduled a v-eeg yesterday. I was surprised that I was able to get in at the last Monday of the month. I could have gotten in a week earlier but I couldn't because of something else. I'm not mentally ready for this test already. :paperbag: So for those that have had a...

In the near future I am going to have a VEEG to establish whether my tendency to fall is linked to seizure activity. Other issues on the table are tinnitus and extreme sensitivity to noise. There is a possibility that these are manifestations of seizures. If anyone has experience with seizures...

The Room: I was scheduled to go in at 7:45 AM at the Mary Brigh building on St. Mary's campus. You check in at the desk and someone will come and get you. The room was very comfortable. There were two large chair/sleepers for visitors, a nice TV, a bathroom, and a separate sink area. There...

Since a couple of you are, or were, in monitoring, do you have any suggestions or insights for making it comfortable? (Beyond the most obvious stuff.) I'm going in next week.

Hi everyone, I hope that you are all having a good day. :hugs: I have recently read some threads regarding members' experiences of video EEGs. I cannot remember how many EEGs I have had, but I know it's between 2 and 5. The idea of having a video EEG sounds good because I might have a better...

I am currently undergoing a Video EEG at UCLA. While the staff is nice, nurses helpful, and my Dr - a genius - I still feel defeated... Today is the 6th Day. I came in Monday April 1, my Dr. Took me down to 450 mg the first and second day (from 1200 mg). Wednesday at night they took me off...

Diary of Seizures OVERVIEW: Below the history of my seizures, to the best of my recollection, is listed in chronological order below. •At about 4-6 yrs of age the right side of my head struck a wall. It is not known if I had a concussion or lost conscious. •Various time from childhood to...

Hey my friends, Starting seeing a new neuro in june and he has been running alot of tests, (all still coming back normal) and even though the last neuro I saw said "seizures and PNES" my new one said since my 12 hour VEEG, came back clear i more than likely have only PNES, and he stated that...

Hey gang! So I am seeing a MS neuro, as many of you know i cannot due a 5 day or more veeg and i told the epi doc that it is out of the question as i dont have daycare. So after losing my neuro that i was seeing i had to find a new that wll hopefully try and help me figure out what is truly...

My VEEG is scheduled for sept 17th. They called me the same day I saw my neuro. I know this sounds terrible, but I hope they see what I have been going through the last couple months. My last veeg was during a 7 month seizure free period, and didnt show a thing. The neuro I was seeing then...
