is on the way. 48 hour test. Went in Monday morning and had all the wires attached. 21 wires. Then they wrapped his head in gauze bandage. His entire head, also going under his chin at one point. Has no head or forehead showing. All wrapped in white gauze. Then they have a white sock thing that they put over the wires and taped onto his head. So it looks like a long white stocking cap going into this backpack that carries the machine.
While they were doing this I was reading about different types of seizures. Boy, absent seizures I can relate to every symptom. Also, headaches are a symptom.
When he was a baby and I would feed him his bottle, there were a few times as he was dozing off that his whole body got rigid and would shake all over. EEG done then was for 20 minutes in the hospital. They put all those wires on and said, ok..sleep. 6 or 7 months old, right.
I have a feeling it will all come back normal. It will take about 10 days for the results. He has to send them off to be read.
But, he has been on Lamictal for mood stabalizer for 3 years. That is a seizure medication. So is Topomax which is for his headaches. Wondering if this medication will prevent something from happening.
