Can meds interfere with EEG readings?

Posted by Jamal Spelling on February 29, 2008, at 13:57:00

I am currently unmedicated. My doctor wants me to first go for an EEG, and if the EEG result is clear, then she wants me to try Cymbalta 60mg/day for 1 month, after which we might augment with a low dose of an AP (she thinks Seroquel).

Problem is, the EEG is scheduled only for 11 March. Then I have to wait a few days for the neurologist to send his report to my pdoc. So I'll only be able to commence Cymbalta in about 2.5 weeks from now, assuming the EEG is clear, which I anticipate it will be.

My pdoc was very specific that she first wanted me to go for the EEG before I begin the Cymbalta.

Why?

2.5 weeks seems like an eternity at the moment. I don't know if I can wait that long. I wish I could start the Cymbalta tomorrow already.
