Thanks for responding, Sue.
I forgot to mention that my epileptologist wants me to be hospitalized, for a VEEG lasting 3-5 days or so. 6/1 is the soonest I can get in. That's when the doctors will work towards figuring out what's happening and what the best course of treatment is. Until then, I just stay on this med at this dosage. I'll have to write down each sz and it's description.
I don't know if I should be not driving in the meantime.
I did talk with my employer about my E, as well as the upcoming hospitalization. I luckily just reached the 90 day employment, and I will be going on leave of absence from work when I go into the hospital for testing.
I'll try to remember to ask the doctors about trying DNA testing, while I am in the hospital. Thanks for the tip.
