Hi Ruth,
Is NEAD the same as PNES (Psychogenic non-epileptic seizures)? And from what I can get after reading that whitepaper on PNES from U of Tampa (I think) is that PNES is just a more politically correct word for pseudo seizures.
The shrinks and neurlogogists have told me I hve PNES or Panic Disorder, but no "electric storm" in the brain, so technically not seizures.
I am at the point that I don't care what it is, I just want to get rid of it.
Bye for now.
Steve
