I am currently undergoing a Video EEG at UCLA. While the staff is nice, nurses helpful, and my Dr - a genius - I still feel defeated...
Today is the 6th Day. I came in Monday April 1, my Dr. Took me down to 450 mg the first and second day (from 1200 mg). Wednesday at night they took me off completely. I was on Trileptal.
I've also been sleep deprived 24 hours on Tuesday and Thursday, and again tonight. I feel defeated not having seizures...at home I try to sleep on time, and take meds perfectly - I do everything backwards here and no seizures! I'm frustrated because my family is starting to think I should just leave. I don't want to give up though..
Is there any way to induce a seizure? Any advice? My Dr. and nurses say "you will have one"...
