If somebody is on high doses of an antiepeleptic, what does this do to their EEG patterns ?? flatten/blunt them ??

Hey Link, one would think it would flatten or blunt them. However knowing this going into an eeg I would think that the attending clinician and Dr. reading the eeg would take this in to account... so .... if say patient x is on AC then there might still be "abnormal" spikes but just not spike as high on the read out if one were not medicated.This is of course my non-medically trained individual theory.
How are you! Has the intense suicidal feelings you were fighting a few days ago still there? I hope not! Good to see your posts! What are you taking now?

I'm alive. Not really much better.
See the doctor again on Thursday. Don't want to get my hopes up.
