Do you think you could have had a seizure? Loss of memory is common after a seizure. Ataxia like seizures can show up on an EEG as spikes. Have you had an EEG? Do you know if ataxia spikes and seizure spikes can be differentiated?

I did have an EEG but it didn't show a seizure as far as I know. I have been to Mayo in Jacksonville but they say I don't have seizures I do have some damage to my brain due to many traumatic brain injuries. I don't understand why I can't remember anything still. I had to have major surgery on my crushed elbow and 2 broke bones. It took almost 4 hours and he put a plate and screws into one of my broken bones and my elbow. It still hurts me. But I wish I could remember what happened.
