Why did you have the EEG done? You don't mention symptoms you're experiencing. Do you have trouble with concentration,focussing,ADHD,meditating? Some people need more theta activity but you have plenty. I don't know if this is problematic for you. I recommend consulting a neurologist with special interest in electroencephalography at the dept of neurology at a university hospital for advice
