Couple simple ?'s: Do I have epilepsy? If so, what kind? What caused my spell? I was lead to believe i experienced syncope, or passed out, could it be my heart or blood pressure? Is my eeg specific for epilepsy or could it be due to head injury, migraine, or other etiologies? Should i get another opinion?
