Hi Sugar and welcome to the forum. :)

No, I don't have personal experience of this but appreciate what a worrying time it must be for you, there is nothing worse than when doctors leave you playing guessing games.

I think all you can do is to try not to anticipate what the actual results might mean hun, so often the scariest sounding things are not as fearsome as we may think.

We are all here for you if you need to post and let off steam or just need someone to talk to. :hugs:

Many many years ago i had stroke like symptoms and had two massive fits (not epilepsy). I had to go through a series of tests and they found a shadow on my brain, they could not explain what had caused it or why it was there.

I was given medication to prevent it happening again, and to this day it hasn't.

I can understand the awful wait you have, but its not always what we think it is.

Do stay on the forum and we'll support you best we can, the waiting for test results can be so worrying.
