An article by one of our long time members. (Kudos)

This does sound interesting, as my EEG results are never the same way twice.

It would be nice to have a long term study without having a hospital stay, and be able to do regular activities.

Would any body else want to do this?

That does sound promising. A few questions need to be addressed.

Is the device worn in one or both ears? Can the device be removed for sleeping, showers, cleaning ears, swimming, etc? Will is detect seizure activity in other
areas of the brain besides the Temporal Lobe?

Perhaps you can pm her.
I didn't think about that. I just figured that it would do the whole brain, and do it continually 24/7 for however long the doctor wanted to do it.

Are you sure? Aviva Hope Rutkin & Phylis Feiner Johnson appear to be two separate people to me with very different credentials.

Yup.
I try to follow her blog.
