Rachel,
If you had an EEG Done recently, your Neurologist or Epileptologist have the results. It takes some time to read and understand. However, after my at home 72 hour EEG, I had an appointment with her. She had changed the dosages of one of my meds, because I was still having some seizures. If you have a concern, call them and make an appointment.

Sean, that’s an unfortunate perspective. There is no question that epilepsy is very difficult to treat, perhaps more than most clinical physical problems, so the neurologist has their work cut out. I’m told constantly that when in conflict I need to get a second ‘outside’ opinion. This is tough. It’s the meds prescription stuff that drives me a bit uncomfortable. I’m very eager to see the practitioners become knowledgeable about and have access to the best interventions. And insurance needs to support us. Hang in there, we can advocate for ourselves and each other.

If you seriously disagree, try to explain your concerns. If they are good, they want their Patient to fully understand what is or may happen. Maybe they are suggesting a medication or dose change, possibly a test. If it gives more information, then do it!

Your suggestion to ask questions is perfect. Thanks.
