[epilepsy] eegs

 

I have a six yr old son with E. He has grand mal and partial sz. He has been having these since he was 22 mths old. We have never been able to get him to sz while having an EEG, but he has been in dr offices and the hospital when having these, therefore the dx.

I have a 9 yr old son that has staring spells followed by confusion and running away. He also will report things that happen during this time that absolutely didn't happen. I had 2 different schools complain last yr about this and did take him to Neuro. They did an EEG which was normal and refused any follow up EEG when the 2nd school complained. He is at a new school this yr and once again the school is complaining that they want him to go back to Neuro.

I have no problem taking him back, but wonder if all sz show up on an EEG.Will EEG's always show a sz if you have one while doing the EEG?
