Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Are there any Mito adults out that have been dx'ed with a seizure disorder ? I recently had a standard EEG and a sleep-deprived EEG, both of which were abnormal. The doc hasn't called back to give me her official interpretation, but the copy of the results states : " Several moderate amplitute isolated left temporal sharp waves were seen. This increases the risk of focal seizures arising from this region. There was very frequent intermittent left temporal slowing. Temporal intermittent rythmic delta activity (TIRDA) was also seen. Some studies have shown ann increased risk of seizures associated with TIRDA " . All I can say is that I'm glad I was persistent about the resident ordering the follow up sleep-deprived test. He told me my first EEG was fine, despite the fact that the Neuro lab stated the results wre abnormal and recommended they order the sleep-deprived study. Why does life have to be so darn difficult sometimes ? That resident is an idiot and unfortunately, I've had to see him a few times. He seems to be bouncing around between the neuromuscular clinic and the general neuro clinic....maybe he should get a job in the custodial dept cleaning toilets...although, he might not be qualified ! My neuromuscular doc agreed with me that the test should be done...thank God. bug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
