Answers: has seizure like activity at night would it show up on an EEG in the morning?

An EEG only shows seizure activity that is happening at the time it is performed.

Whether or not her seizures the previous night would have lingering activity that morning depends on the cause. In addition, during an EEG, the technician will also use a series of flashing lights to try to provoke a seizure in your daughter. Therefore, if she has a condition that makes her prone to seizures, she may have one triggered by the lights even if she wasn't already seizing at the time.

you would think so...



I'd say something as serious as a little one having seizure's should be discussed with a medical professional

Ask your doctor if she might benefit from an stay at a place where she could be monitored overnight.
