[QUOTE="buddy, post: 540001, member: 12886"] Q too, had an inpt. three day in third grade when seizure symptoms first showed and this was an internationally known clinic...they said no way, then at the specialty hospital for kids with brain injuries, spinal injuries, any genetic or neuro illness, they did inpt when he was in sixth grade and really paid attention to the symptoms, added extra leads and found he was having seizures over and over and over all day and all night. Even people with full blown generalized seizures can go in and have a normal eeg, the issue with an eeg is they have to be actively having a seizure to catch it. HOWEVER, the area where Q had his surgery always looks abnormal in terms of brain wave activity right under those leads...so a structural change may be noticed, but clearly an MRI or CAT scan would be better to check that kind of thing. That is why I asked, I think an eeg is an interesting choice and was curious why they chose that and then to sedate, since that would affect the brain wave activity. Must have been a specific issue they were trying to investigate? Not my business, so no need to answer, I am just really fascinated with this kind of stuff...Always more to learn. [/QUOTE]
