Very often a 20 minute EEG won't show seizure activity, even in someone who definitely has them, and these Dr's know that.

Get a 2nd opinion, I saw a neurologist for an EMG and it showed pinched nerves, this was after seeing a horrible neurosurgeon who dismissed me.

I've also seen another neurologist recently and am having an EEG next week, he suspects some kind of seizure including non epileptic seizures.

There is definitely something going on so see someone else.

Just to hear the neuro who did the EMG tell me beforehand that the test is not fool proof, it might not show anything, could have hugged him for being honest.

The neuro who I see for my "funny spells" said these things should not be happening to me and they should not be happening to you either.

The screaming is a symptom of seizure, not saying this is what's going on but it can be, I shouted the same words over and over in the middle of the ER, like a robot, could not stop it.
