willl head your advice and see an epileptologist
Wow thank you for the epileptologist links, I'm sure they will come in handy.
I agree with your statement that neurologists and psychiatrists aren't particularly the person to see for such a nuanced neurological disorder as epilepsy.
I still intend on keeping my appointment at the University of Chicago, if the doctor strongly believes TLE, I will contact an epileptologist, which I emailed back in September.
My psychiatrist wise to the fact that he might be able to diagnose my mood disorder and auras as TLE, but I believe an epileptologist will have the proper tools to more clearly understand and treat my problems.
Again I will keep you posted on how my visit goes with the neuropsychologist. From what you and others say seeing an Epileptologist is key to recovery so I will strongly discuss this with my doctor.
I'm glad that I'm not alone and I'm hopeful.
Thank you,
Harry
