Avatar n tn Hello. If your brain has seizure activity going on, it will show on the EEG , even if you don't get a seizure during the recording. Keep in mind, that in some cases, the EEG between two episodes of seizure may be normal. There are certain stimulation procedures during the EEG, which may elicit the seizure activity. Do let me know about your EEG report. The MRI looks clear to me. A Radiologist's review will be more helpful.
Avatar f tn 30 y.o. woman, had a grand mal seizure for unknown reasons. EEG and MRI looked normal, EXCEPT for white spots in pituitary gland. One pregnancy 5 years ago. Neuro said they could be leftover lesions from small bleeds during pregnancy? Referred for another MRI. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Avatar m tn Our youngest daughter, who will be 8 in March, had a seizure induced by a fever in early November. The seizure lasted about a minute or less and she was convulsing and lost consciousness. I was shocked and scared because she had not had a febrile seizure since shortly before her third birthday. The only other seizure she had was at 15 months, and again, was a febrile seizure.

Avatar m tn I don't think people who have a seizure remember the seizure, but he definitely had something. Maybe it's a thyroid problem. He needs to be seen, but an ER is the slowest, most expensive and least efficient way to do it.
Avatar n tn There is no major drug use reported, and no history in the family of epilepsy or any other seizure disorder. What could have caused this?
Avatar n tn He should definitely not delay in finding an epileptologist who will follow this and diagnose it properly. Often an MRI will be normal even when someone has epilepsy. My son's first couple of MRIs were normal, but finally he had one which showed epileptic activity which enabled the doctor to more definitively diagnose him. The doctor did not wait for the abnormal MRI however, to start anti-seizure medication. If you don't know where to start, google National Epilepsy Foundation.
Avatar n tn Thank for the feedback kindd, Kindd I have got an MRI & 2 EEG scans done in the last month. All the reports say that there is no abnormal activity in either of the reports, they are perfectly fine. The neurologist doctor i have been showing to has increased my dosage to 1500 mg Torleva, 10 mg Frisium, Met Neurobion, Melzap MD.
Avatar n tn In December I had a minor stroke. MRI showed 3 signs of stroke and 1 what radiologist described as a peculiar lesion at brainstem which they are still working up, possible MS. I am going today for another MRI of brain and spine. When I called the neurologist after the first time an episode like this happened he thought it was probably muscular, which I am convinced it is neurological.
Avatar n tn She has no other typical seizure characteristics as in the past. We were in the ER twice this week. A cat scan shows nothing...an MRI today. What is going on?
Avatar f tn My 2 week old infant has been in the NICU. He has recieved 1 ct scan 2 EEGs 1 MRI. The ct scan came back normal. The first EEG showed seizure activity. The second EEG showed seizures controlled by phenobarbatol. MRI came back with "indistinctness between white-gray matter in the frontparietal regions of the brain. What does this mean?
Avatar f tn Could stress create a seizure? If the MRI and EEG are normal, what should we do next? Could the decrease in vision be a symptom from a possible tumor?
Avatar f tn results of MRI say multiple foci of abnormal Flair signal seen in subcortical/ deep white matter
Avatar f tn It is important to accurately describe the seizure, timing of the day the seizure occurred and also in what setting. Then the question arises if the seizure should be treated – this is answered by looking at the risk and benefits of having a recurrent seizure and the side effects of the antiepileptics. Ultimately, the workup will need to identify the cause of the seizure. Is it from an intracranial lesion, an epileptic syndrome, stress, etc? You will need to have neuroimaging performed (i.e,.
Avatar m tn My golden who turns 14 in two days had a grand mal seizure at the beginning of November, then was seizure-free until the beginning of February. She had three seizures over a 72-hour period so the vet put her on phenobarbital, 75mg twice a day.
1437229 tn?1296070020 My neurologist and the rest of the team determined that I had a seizure. I learned that about 5% of people with MS have some sort of seizure activity. Mine was mild to moderate, and he said I may never even have another one. He has placed me on a low dose of a mild anti-convulsant, and said we will watch it closely. My question is: My diagnosis was primary progressive.
Avatar n tn My son is having some sort of seizure like spells when he goes to sleep. His Neurologist has ordered an MRI and an EEG. If you are having seizures at night it could be benign seizures that happen to be brought on by sleep in your case (according to my son's Neurologist it may be in his case_) But I would definately get checked out about it. Its possible some medical condition could be causing it.
