I go to an incredible adult epilepsy center in the Center for Advanced Medicine of Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis. Every one of the neuros there is called neurologist .... not one goes by "epileptologist". So I don't worry much about titles.

Hello, me again.

Quick question: Does anyone know if theres's anything significant about "generalized slowing" on an EEG? I requested a copy of my EEG report and am kind of annoyed for two reasons. One because my jerk neurologist (who isn't my neurologist anymore; just officially "fired" him) wrote on there that I had a "history of anxiety." It's really difficult to get anyone to take your situation seriously after a doctor write down that you have a history of mental illness. Argh. Anyway, moreover, it says in the report that "generalized slowing" was observed during hyperventilation, which is not what my neurologist told me. He told me that my EEG was "completely normal." Even if it isn't a specific finding, it's still a finding, and it irks me that he just decided he didn't have to tell me at all.
