Syncope and abnormal EEG
I been having constant headcahes and dizzynes, that with time have been getting worse.
About 3 months ago I passed out and collapsed.
Went to my pcp and evrything was ok.
Wel last month went again, and once more they wanted to give me pain meds, i told the doctor that i did not want, i wanted them to found the cause.
He sent me to a Neurologist.
I did the TTT and it was normal, the houlter was also ok, now my EEG came back abnormal with spikes on temporal lobe, both side.
I have a ct and MRI schedules, but doctor wants me to go on Lamactil.
I spoke to another doctor(family menber) that said that we don't treat based on EEG. Now the doctor said that i am predisposed for seizures and that i should go on the meds, before i have a serious episode, he believes that when i passed out it was a seizure.
I still want to have another kid, i am 33. I don't know what to do.
Could this abnormal EEg be actually showing the possibilities of seizures?
please tell me what do you see, and think?
i appreciate it very much.
