Can status epilepticus be pseudo from ptsd? x19hr total loss aware no+eeg during prob to med given for seize rpd slwng brain wvs 1rst epilepsy event
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What was happening: During the status. Were you having tonic clonic movements or were you in a post ictal or other form of unconsciousness? Seizures can result from a number of medical illnesses. Temporal lobe seizures can be hard to find on an EEG but during a seizure there should be something. I am suspicious that something else may have been happening and would welcome further information . Exam and labs.
