Brief Answer:
This seems like a normal EEG
Detailed Answer:
Hi....this looks like an essentially normal EEG to me (though the print is not very legible).
I need some information -
1. Does the kid have any seizures?
2. How is his interaction with peers?
3. Does he mingle with people?
4. Has he attained all milestones at appropriate times?
5. Is there any family history of autism or attention deficit hyperactivity?
Regards - Dr. Sumanth

Dear sir,
he never had the seizures.
He interact very well with people and with children. At kindergarten is tough because all the kids for the same years speaks, sings and tells the poems. And my boy can't do this stuff.
Ha has a little brother, 2 years old, by the way he has the same problem, he don't talk too.
They playing together, laugh together.
In our family don't have any person with autism or other disorder.
Our specialist tell us he don't has autism, it is something with epileptic disorder.
In my opinion is not a reason why they are don't talk.

Brief Answer:
I don't think this is epilepsy
Detailed Answer:
Hi....I don't think this is epilepsy. But what I suggest is that -
1. Your kid needs complete psychological evaluation.
2. He might be having a mild shyness factor.
3. If psychological opinion is completely normal, then he needs to be seen by a neurologist.
I don't think the issue with both of your kids is epilepsy.

Dear Sirs,
we making now the lessons with psycho-pedagogue. She thinking the same. But psychiatrist thinks - is a epilepsy.
Is very difficult to live with this, for me like a mother of this precious boys. They are so sweets, but the same time they are so different to other kids.
Radu, the biggest one, always had the problem with sleeps, after medicament with valproate, he sleeps well now. He had hysterical nights, can't sleep and always winced in the sleep.
The EEG looks normal now. Is words of our specialists.

Brief Answer:
If EEG is normal - unlikely to be epilepsy
Detailed Answer:
Hi.....if the EEG is normal... It is highly unlikely to be an epilepsy.
I agree with you that it is difficult for you to agree that it's an epilepsy when all the tests are turning out to be normal.
Sleeping well after Valproate doesn't mean that it is an epilepsy.
I do not understand why even the psychiatrist is thinking that it is an epilepsy. Can you throw some light on it....can you let me know what explanation has been offered by the psychiatrist to say that it's an epilepsy when the EEG is normal.
Has any time any neuroimaging been taken - like - an MRI brain...apart from EEG.
