Can hyperventalating cause seizures?!


Question: I got no answers in the other area. Tryin again. I had an eeg done and it showed "increased activity", not sure what that means - if you do please let me know. I have a lot of symptoms for focal seizures. My appt. w/ a neurologist isn't til the 3rd of Jan. But my mind is racing with unanswered questions that my family doc can't answer. now when i had eeg done, they flashed lights in my eyes which made me feel a bit funny, my heart was racing! Then he had me hyperventalate for a few minutes. After the first few I started feeling really weird and everything looked all weird my heart was racing. i felt like i would pass out, I remember I told him I really didn't feel right I was spacing out real bad like i do all the time all day long. he told me to keep going. I finished the test but I can't remember the few minutes that followed. Only bits and pieces up to the point when I let the hospital.
My questions are:
What does increased activity mean
and can hyperventalating cause a seizure.

Wow, I know nothing about what you explained but you're almost there to seeing the neurologist. I've learned that stressing over what could be can be worse than what it is. So just try not to stress out the next couple of days, have a good new years and then see the doctor. Hopefully he'll clarify everything for you.
