[QUOTE="buddy, post: 559686, member: 12886"] Yes, I'm with Terry ..... Don't discount the eeg because you havent seen classic signs. my son has seizures that often only show as sudden mood changes -- where he just reacts to the feeling as if mad about whatever is around so it seems like a rage over something real when really his brain just misfired. They found he was having these electrical changes all day and night repeatedly over three days of.monitoring. They also wake him to a certain level that makes him yell out during the night. Lots of people are helped with anti seizure medications even if not treating specifically seizures, they can help with mood stabilization and/or behavior regulation. Just an option to keep in mind....I mean, what are the odds of having such intrusive behavioral issues and it not being connected to abnormal brain activity findings ....sometimes they dismiss things too quickly I have found. We were blessed to find a group that looked at the big picture after years of evaluations. You may not see any outward signs of "seizures " and they may not rise to the level of being clinically called seizures but that extra or abnormal activity can have a big impact depending where it is in the brain. Did the. neuro say where it was coming from? Good lead in my humble opinion....yet sometimes very hard to treat. I hope the Clonidine helps. It sure did help us. Adderal for us did nothing, we.had.to use ritalin and.concerta. everyone is different of course so just sharing my experiences! [/QUOTE]
