> I am currently taking Neurontin 400mg/day and Klonopin. I think if insurance looks ok I will see a neuro soon and get some more testing. I only have had a standard EEG. I want to get a sleep/medication deprived 24-AEEG and an MRI. After that I will see.

> Mitch400 is a pretty low dose. I can't go under 500, and that was after 2 years at 900. Look on the Mass Gen Neuro Boards - people strongly advise avoiding regular neuro, in favor of an epileptologist. . .and don't be surprised if nothing shows up on the sleep-deprived. Are you having debiliating deja vues or other symptoms? I just control it with Neurontin with my pdoc. . .and Klonopin is another excellent GABA calmer.
