Will taking Provigil interfere with EEG results?!
Question: Will taking Provigil interfere with EEG results!?
I have panic/anxiety attacks followed by "cataplexia" and a loss of consciousness when I'm not on my meds (20 mg Lexapro, 18 mg Strattera, 200 mg Provigil- daily) even though doing things I thoroughly enjoy and am "relaxed" doing- like playing on the computer, watching TV, driving, meeting with friends!.
After meeting with my pdoc once every month for about 6, 7 years now, when I mentioned this to him again he suggested seizures and wrote a script for me to have an EEG done!. (I had gone without my meds for 3 days because I wasn't eating big meals and the problem came right back)
I'm going off of Lexapro and Strattera because I'm symptom free when I take those and I don't want it interfering with the results!. But what about Provigil!? Does anyone know, or have any advice where to look to find out!?
Also, can an EEG pick up if a person has narcolepsy or does a sleep study have to be done for that!?
Thanks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
