Thanks for the reply! So, even though you didnt have seizures, you still had abnormalities in EEG? How long was it like this?Most times, even though I was on medication, I still had abnormalities.
There was only one time when I had a normal EEG while instructed to take my medication before the EEG. Since it was normal, I was able to come off of the medication. I did so successfully for 15 months. It was the best 15 months ever, but it didn't last...sadly. I felt so much better, a lot more energy, truly more alive inside, but then COVID.
Before this point, I was on medication for 10 years and was "seizure free". Hadn't had any issues.
After getting COVID and that flaring up and messing everything up along with the environmental issues of my previous living situation, I'm having issues all over again and they're harder to keep under control than before.
The most recent EEG I had (I think it was 2021), I was put back on medication first, and a month or so later when I went in, there were abnormalities again.
Thanks for the reply! If you dont mind, what sort of epilepsy do you have? Generalized, focal?For me, meds stopped the abnormal EEGs.
