Hi every one, well i said I wouldnt get back to you all untill in knew what was going on, Had my eeg and saw the neurolowitch today, and she said they found nothing, I knew this was the case as I felt no attacks during my 24 hour take home eeg. she has told me my symptoms are to many, This dosnt surprise me as it's been 13 years of hellish symptoms ,from my constipation ibs , dreamy states, ataxia ect, the list is so long. she said she feels this is anxiety. manifesting all this, right now i'm defeated and very low I thought I'd have an answer today and could get some meds to get me through this next month. she said if you have another episode you can come straight in and we'l do an eeg within that hour,(if she could have done that why not in the 1st place) I said would it still show up a 1/2 hour after an attack and she said yes. (is this correct)????? I have an amazing 22 year old daughter, a magnificent husband, and the best life anyone could hope for so why would i have anxiety? when i told my mum today , she said but you've always had these symptoms. we just thought they were part of your personality. so what dose one make of all this. for me it say's I'm crazy, and I havent stopped doubting myself sinse, am i somatizing manifesting? sorry but i really need a pep talk here. thankyou all , jen from oz

Hi jenoz, I didn't see or don't remember your other post and I'm kinda going out on a limb here...but have you been tested for celiac dissease? If you haven't, then you should. Despite what most doctors think, it's not always so easy to diagnose. The easiest way to know, is to try a gluten free diet. Here is more info... www.celiac.com www.celiac.org http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/celiac-disease/DS00319/DSECTION=2 To answer your question, it may or may not show up 1/2 hour after an attack, it depends a lot on your brain and the type of seizure, but it can't hurt to try.
