Nick,

If it was seizures, the flashing lights and other stimuli they use during the EEG's would have shown the seizure.

You might ask your neuro if you can try phenobarbital. It will help you sleep and likely settle you down. It is a anti-seizure barbiturate but does not cause strong addiction problems. I have been on it long term twice. Once when I was 16 for 1 1/2 years and again when I was 19 for 6 months.

If you neuro does not know how to look at a VEP or AEP to see how much such stimuli effects your brain, you need to find someone who does.

A qEEG/AEP/VEP done by someone who truly understands them will be a big help.

I'll try doing some more research for a specialist in your area.

My best to you.
