"EEG Findings"

September 17th, 2010
1100 Hours

This was a recent question I had for the doctors after I had done some research about Sub Clinical seizures and their relationship to Epilepsy.

Keep in mind; although Dar may now suffer from these seizures, they are totally treatable with the medications she is already taking. I would assume it is now a matter for the doctors to find the correct dosage and we will probably have to have periodic testing of both the meds and an occasional EEG to look for “Abnormal Activity” in the brain.

Morning doctors,

Regarding Dar's sub clinical seizures and their association with Epilepsy.

If an individual has sub clinical seizures does that mean they "have" Epilepsy? Does Dar?

Thanks, Danny

Dr. Water’s response

1.Yes
2.Yes

This is Doctor Doherty’s response,

Yes. Sub clinical just means we can't see the seizures just from looking at her. However, the EEG tells us what is going on electrically in the brain. Seizures are abnormal electric discharges.

Hope this helps.

Dr D

To our readers; don’t get hung up on the word Epilepsy, just think of like this, “ we now have confirmation that without proper medication, Dar suffers from abnormal electrical discharges in the brain. Normally the seizures do not cause permanent damage, I expect Dar back to her “perky” self very soon. This is all totally treatable, I can only assume that the clinical stigma of Epilepsy is more for clinical “coding” for doctors and providers. I will be looking into the possibility of other programs that may be available to Dar because of this new clinical finding. If you know of any, please let me know.

Love to all,

Dar/Danny/Jamiesue/Mav
