URGENT- CONFIRMING SEIZURE DISORDERS WITH A VIDEO EEG
I had recently posted about a seizure disorder case in which the individual had been mistakenly labeled with a conversion disorder by a neurologist based upon his subjective observations and without objective confirmation by a video EEG. I am reposting this information as I have been made aware of several other individuals who were misdiagnosed in this manner- a video EEG showed that each had a valid seizure disorder. Lesson learned- if you are told that you suffer from psychogenic seizures or a conversion disorder, please demand confirmation by a video EEG as it has been the standard of care regarding such issues for many years now.
