Re: [epilepsy] MEG

 

I have already had all those test done and now I am waiting for the MEG results for the surgery. The MEG lab said I would have the results in 3 weeks to a month and they are still not in almost 2 months later. I am getting anxious and tired of waiting. Did you end up getting the surgery?

I had my MEG scan in December 2007 before my RTL in March of 2008. In

total I had 4 tests done in a 2 week period. I had a PET scan, MEG

scan, nuero psych testing, and a WADA test. I had already had a video

EEG prior to that. Once all tests were done the surgery committee met

to review them and I heard about 2 weeks after the last test about the

outcome. You will likely nto get "results" the way you typically get

results, in that the purpose of a MEG is to determine surgical

viability. Typically what you will hear is whether surgery is an

option. If you are considering surgery be sure they do all the tests I

mentioned above.
