I'm having my first EEG test done in a few hours. Wish me luck.

I'll let you all know how it went.

Praying for the best possible results for you!

Blessings...

According to the technician, she says she isn't a doctor or anything but she seen some things that were abnormal. What could this mean? What all does an EEG detect?

First, the tech should have never said that. She was way out of line. Her only comments should have been about the quality of the waveforms. By this I mean, the waveforms were not cluttered up with errant abstract data. Errant abstract data can be caused by blinking, swallowing, moving, etc.

You need to wait for your doctor or a neurologist to read the EEG results. There are many abnormal things that can show up on an EEG that are considered inconclusive.

So, wait and see. Don't obsess about her ill-informed comments.

This neurologist that I'm seeing (or hardly ever seeing since he's only available once a month) said I won't be able to follow up on the results until the 25th! I was shocked...so shocked that I scheduled an appointment with a new neurologist on Tuesday. I called Dr. Dixit's office (my current neurologist) and told them to cancel that appointment and fax my results over to the new neurologist because I don't plan on seeing Dr. Dixit again. He was a quack anyways. The one time that I seen him, he rushed me in and out of his office in a flash. He gave no advice on how to deal with my symptoms, told me I was depressed and prescribed me some Prozac. He even told me I needed to get a job and start doing more things to get my mind off the symptoms.

Good riddance.

Sounds like Dr Dixit is Jewish. His office scheduled your appointment for the 25th, Christmas Day??? And on a Sunday no less.

Did you inquire to see if the new neurologist has much experience with concussions?
