Hey there, BirdDancer!

I'd had so many EEGs because I had started them approx. 35 years ago. Every time I'd started care with a new Primary Care Doc, a new neurologist and/or a new pdoc, back to the EEG suite I'd go!!!

I was very fortunate to have had my first hospital admission be in a very good hospital. Every admission was worked up over and over. I'd had 4 EEGs from that admission, alone. My dissociative symptoms have, often, been predominant and this has caused docs to keep ordering EEGs over the years. (I tend to think I have a brain that kindles quite easily, be it from migraine activity, BP and/or trauma.... and, of course, very sensitive to stress!)

I have also had horrible, relentless and frequent migraines, auras and migraine equivalents. : eek: I used to frequently end up in the ER with Status Migrainosus! I have had a drastic decrease in migraines since taking lamotrigine(for BPII).

Spirituality? Yes, always, yet to varying degrees. Some of this might depend upon a factor as simple as the amount of time I'd had to invest in such at any given time. I've always been interested/fascinated/drawn to mysticism, theology, philosophy and to spiritual endeavors. (Whatever that means.) I have learned I am much more balanced and much better off staying grounded and in the Present Moment! I have learned ,too, there is a great deal of "grounded" spirituality in everyday life.

So, yes, many EEGs for me!!!
Thanks so much for this thread!
