The week long eeg sounds like a good idea. You havent started any new medications lately have you? When I tried Topomax I was so out of it I did stuff like that and had no memory of it at all. It never helped my seizures either just made me all messed up.
Good luck!

Well, I broke down and went to see a psychiatrist, very hard for me to admit I need help. I think I should just be able to get over the stress and anxiety, but anyway. She thinks I am depressed. I think I am just overwhelmed at work and cant multitask in a very fast paced job since my seizures started. She agreed to give me a low dose Adderall and wants me to take Effexor
with it. I am thinking about just trying the Adderall first since my neurologist said it had a less effects on seizure threshold. Has anyone had their seizures cause you to feel like you have ADD? And has anyone taken Effexor? I would like to see if I can get my stress level down so I don't have to go through another EEG.

I can’t relate to not being taken off of medication during an EEG. But I can relate to having to be at one for a whole week. The last stero EEG I had lasted 12 days because oddly enough, even though I stopped taking my medication for the EEG, they couldn’t get me to have a seizure. So eventually on day 12 they had to force one on me by shocking my brain with leads. EEGs are one of the hardest parts while in the process of making your way to a brain surgery. Hope you’re doing better.

Thank you for your responses. I haven't started any new medication. Really dont want to start all over. I couldn't work or drive for over a year after the original onset of seizures. It caused such financial and emotional stress. I finally felt like I had my life back. I know we all go through struggles, some are worse than others, but this illness can have such life altering consequences.

I had a three-year and four-year span of no seizures and both came to an end after death/s in the family. Definitely believe depression and anxiety could be the cause.
