Sat, 11/01/2014 - 23:30hi im dani. im 22 and have had siezures since i was 14. i never talked to doctors about it till last year because i was scared. i still am but im more scared about the damage happening from the siezures. i got a sleep deprived eeg last year sometime ( i have a pretty bad memory so i dont know when it was.). it came back normal and the doctors just ignored my siezure problem ( great doctors i know). im now seeing a new doctor and he had me go to a neuroligist. btw they are some weird people lol. he is having me do an extended stay video and audio eeg. i just want to know what might happen while im there. im already freaking out cause im getting an iv.... im terrified of needles... so any advice would be great.

Also, I have them usually around two times a month and they look like tonic clonic seizures. They usually last about ten minutes as well. And are usually at night. Thanks all
