Shezbut - Thanks! I had been going to the doc for close to a decade without having a dx. I even went to a neuro. and asked about epilepsy and MS and he said that my symptoms were not typical of TLE. I told him about getting ringing in my ears and losing my vision but remembering it and he said that wasn't that common. Actually my GP was the one who ordered my EEG, not my neuro. And when he saw that I had 2 sharp waves from my temporal lobe, he said "well you may just have atypical epilepsy".

I thought my experiences were weird. That makes it even crazier that it took over 7 years to get a dx! I was told I was hypoglycemic, had hypothyroid etc... and all were misdiagnoses. Oh well. It's fixed now. Thanks for the info!
