I am experiencing strong dejavus for years. bitter taste. stomach issues. smelling hallucinations. crying spells. in the past I was told I might be bipolar,adhd,depressed

none of the meds did any good. so the neuro implied frontal lobe epilepsy. eeg good. now what? does that mean my symptoms are just ...crazy?

    when someone tells me, "your eeg is good" I say.. uh you need to be more specific.. Good meaning you're not gonna die? Or good meaning, your normal. Find a neurologist who will take the time to explain the specifics, and find the right specialist.

    I agree; ask what the next steps are. What other explanations, tests or plans are next to follow u. My eeg was good too, so was my second one but I still have asphasic spells. I’m now in hospital for 5 days of 24 hour eeg monitoring. This was after 2 years on seizure meds and two kinds with three increases, a spinal tap, mri, ct scan etc. things don’t just end there.....
