The EEG
Hannah I came home from the EEG yesterday. She did much better this time then she did in December. She slept for longer periods of time and I think they got a good picture of her jumps. On Tuesday the Dr said that he had only reviewed one section of tape and could neither rule in or rule out that these jumps are seizures. He said that her EEG is abnormal and that there are some spikes that would indicate seizures, but that these spikes don't always correlate with when she is jumping. He said that it is possible that a part of her brain that is too deep to be truly picked up by the EEG is seizing. He plans to review all of the tape and we will have results in about a week or two. Although, I'm doubtful that they will actually be able to identify what's going on, I'm glad that they actually saw what I am seeing at home and agree with me that whatever it is, it is not normal. Hopefully, this latest EEG will give the new neurologist some information to work with when we see her in August. Please pray that they will get an idea of what these jumps are and how to control them. Please also pray that this new neurologist will be a better fit for us.
