I signed up here a few years ago, but was not very active due to numerous health issues which have only gotten worse.
I didn't mean to ignore anyone so if I never got the chance to respond please don't be offended by that.
I am not on computer often.
I have a question that perhaps someone could help me with. I had a wonderful neurologist that diagnosed me with Left Frontal Temporal Lobe seizures I truly thought that doctor was great. Due to Insurance changes & long trip to see him. I just recently seen a "new" neurologist. He kept me on same seizure med, but had me do a 48 hr Ambulatory EEG. When I followed up with him he said you don't have seizures?? I replied but I am on meds & if they are under control the EEG should be normal. He replied NO meds or not there would be abnormal spikes he said it's nothing except anxiety, panic or excessive worry. I don't buy that & I really wish now I had never told him I had anxiety. I am positive that my former neurologist wouldn't have pin pointed the seizures if they were not there after two EEG's nor would he have put me on medication.
I would appreciate any suggestions
Thanks,
Cathy
