Question about olfactory hallucinations
Hi,
I am being told different things by different doctors regarding seizures. I have been having this thing where I smell cigarette smoke that isn't there. I had it often before I had brain surgery 6 yrs ago, then it went away for a couple years and now it's been back. I recently had what they thought was a TIA and then 2 more episodes at the hospital. About a week later I had the same episode happen. After CT's and MRI's they said it was not a stroke or TIA because there was nothing permanent on the scans. When I looked some things up it really sounded more like simple partial seizures.
My neurosurgeon is sure they are temporal lobe seizures while the neurologist says the 2 EEG's were clean. Grrrrrrr. I am at a loss. I am being scheduled for a different EEG with a nasal something-or-other soon.
Anyone else have these strange smells that aren't there? There is much more detail to all this but I didn't want to make you all fall asleep !
Warm Regards~
