I have two neurologists! One for migraines and one for sleep. My migraine doctor referred me to my sleep doctor. I've been on maintenance for a long time with my migraine meds so I'm only on regular visits with one.
I've had occasional EEG's since I was a little girl. And one MRI. Nothing horrible ever turned up, but I think doctors like to start with a full slate of tests.
Let me try to remember the temporal lobe stuff. Deja vu only occasionally, shame attacks, phantom smells or maybe smell memories, and weird perceptual stuff, like seeing lines as slanted instead of straight.
I don't remember it happening unless I've forgotten to take my meds a couple of days. Or that memorable time that I stopped all my meds cold turkey for a few months. But I might be mistaken.
