@jakedduck1 I really appreciate your response. I could not understand the neurologists reasoning. I see him every 4 months and he never discussed this at the appointment in November, so it came as a surprise. I have not had any seizures for a year, and so thats a big deal to me, however, another thing I did not like was, he asked if I had had any seizures, I said no, and then he said, well, maybe you’re having them and you don’t know it, you had them over a year ago. I didn’t understand what he was trying to imply with regards to this I know when I have seizures. I have two separate kinds of seizures and I’m aware of both of them. However, I have not had any. He seemed insistent on me taking the medication regardless, however, I don’t want to take another medication when I know I haven’t been having the seizures and I offered to do a EEG, but he would not do the order. That seems odd to me a take-home EEG would prove whether I am having them or not. Why take medication if you know you’re not having them but then he’s not listening to you. I agree treat the present not the past. Thank you.
