Hi all, like most of you I am sure we have all been for scans at some point looking for whats causing our epilepsy. Had a bit of strange one when I was first diagnosed with epilepsy I was sent for the EEG and a number of scans and apperently they came back showing two small calcification on the brain, my neurologists at the time assured me that was what was most likely causing my epilepsy ok, as the years went on and the meds were being changed and sorted every time I had a tonic clonic I was sent to hospital had an EEG and was sent for more lovely scans again always the same thing two small calcifications on the brain most likely the cause of my epilepsy. Now more recently I was sent for an MRI scan they didn't manage to pick anything up the current neurologist said that this may be that faulty equipment was to blame in my home country ( I feel this is unlikely since these scans were done at three seperate hospitals over a number of years) or that the calcifications were just to small to pick up but she doesn't feel they are causing my epilepsy. This pretty much goes against what every other neurologist has told me. So my question here have any of you had similiar experiences and should I go for another scan and if so what sort CT or MRI?
A bit long winded but I really want this to be put to bed either there is a focal point or there isn't, I am confused as all hell.
thanks.
