I'm Lisa.. My daughter is Shushanna ( shanna thank you very much *roll eyes tenagers*)
She had a brain bruise when she was 6 months old and the dr said she would ave seizures until hat bruise heal. Which took 9 yrs she was SZ ( seizure in med terms) free until lately.
All her seizure showed frontal lobe sz which is where the brain bruise was. Even though the bruise is gone the eeg showed the seizure tendancies came from the frontal lobe.

Jenni,
My seizures was caused from a head injury when I was a baby, so every EEG I
have had always shows the place which where the seizures comes from. It
seems like the schools could just take the word of the Neurologist that your
son is having everything done that they can do to treat him. I know
sometimes people's EEG doesn't show them up, but there is only so much you
can do. Take care.
