Sleep Deprived Eeg
Posted: 05-16-05 15:17pm

Well, I had one on last thursday, may 12. How long typically do you have to wait to get results?

What do I do if they don't find anything this time? I have been searching for answers for over 2 1/2 years on what these episodes are. As I said before, when they were checking cardiac stuff they found the aneurysm in my aorta, for which I had open heart surgery last october. But the cardiologist said he doesn't think it's cardiac related.

I just want answers and I am getting very frustrated. I've had every test except a pregnancy test in the last 2 1/2 years (i know that's not it!) but nothing conclusive.

Sorry we have been away for testing and I did not see this sooner.

It can take a couple weeks to get results depending on the neuro.
Sorry you have been seeking answers so long. We have also been doing thta after we had a bad doc take away the dx 2.5 years ago. Hang in there, keep fighting for the right answers and best care.....

I am so sorry you had those 2 days of seizures!! Hoping you will get answers from the neuro on the 9th. It is such a pain to wait for answers. We have been dealing with seizures for over 6 years and seeking a new dx for 2.5 years as well.

Hang in there!
