I thought about a question on some of the comments I have received. A few people stated to stay awake later before an EEG but if mine are happening in my sleep around about same time and fee and far between would that actually help? And the only thing I have ever done is an EEG in 2023 and it came out fine.

ou've brought up an excellent point that's very relevant to your specific situation.
There are many types of EEGs available, as explained on this Epilepsy Foundation page:

Perhaps a video EEG (done in a hospital for 1-7 days or longer) or an ambulatory EEG (which allows you to go about your normal activities at home while wearing the electrodes for 24-72 hours or up to a week) could be options worth exploring in your case.
I'd definitely recommend discussing these possibilities with your doctor to see what might work best for you.
