It's very welcome to discuss here.
I have epilepsy since my first age and doctors have no clue what is going on in my brain.
EEG, MRI and so on, nothing abnormality was discovered. o_O
 
had some testing (CAT scan, MRI, SPECT, etc) done to find the focus of my seizures. I recall when a neurologist entered the examining room, smiling. I wanted to punch his smiling face. He beamed that the findings of the tests were all normal. He seemed to think that everything was therefore OK. I had had medically refractory seizures for decades prior to having two neurosurgeries which controlled the epilepsy. Just because no abnormality was discovered doesn't necessarily rule out an abnormality. The doctor knows the disease/ condition, but the patient knows himself. Sometimes they intersect.
