Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
The diagnosis of epilepsy in children requires multiple follow-up electroencephalogram (EEG) tests. A single normal EEG does not rule out the issue, as there are cases where the abnormal discharge areas in the brain of some children are located deep, making them sometimes difficult to capture. EEG plays a significant role in determining the type of epilepsy, guiding medication use, and assessing prognosis. Currently, your child's condition is not well-controlled, and the dosage of medication can be adjusted appropriately. I am not sure about the current dosage of medication your child is taking.
