I'm not sure I understood correctly when you mentioned that your neurologist said to keep taking your meds and to use the CPAP if it gets in the way. Was this your doctor's instruction for your EEG exam?
My doctor also doesn't recommend stopping medications for regular EEGs – the ones where preparation is done at home rather than in the hospital. The main thing he recommends is to stay awake as much as possible the night before the EEG.

@santosh099 the 30 min EEG I was recommended to be sleep deprived. The 48 hr at home I asked about stopping the med she said no still take the medication and as far as my CPAP which I use the nostril mask she said if it gets in the way then just don’t use it. I would think I wouldn’t take the meds to try and see if anything happens and my sleep apnea is pretty bad at times. It starts at a 6 and goes to 17 for my episodes so it’s just a hot mess for sure. So do I stop the med day before the at home test or just continue
