How Can Silent Seizures Be Treated?
Hi, I ve been seen by a neurologist this past year. I have already been diagnosed with silent seizures. However, they were attempting to diagnose my chronic pain as well...needless to say after all my test (MRI--EEG--physician exam) the doctor would have said I had a good chance of having MS...EXCEPT....I m 47. One of the doctors thought it possibly something else that s actually worse, but I can t remember what he called it, It was because of something he saw with Nye eyes during the physicians exam..... I ve been dealing with chronic pain for several years now & mobility is beginning to get hard. What should I do

Hello,
Cannot say in your particular case, but generally, seizures can be seen in the EEG, and any anti-epileptic can be helpful. Indeed, there are quite a lot of them used in pain from nerve problems.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
