Diagnosed with SEIZURES? "PSYCHOGENIC" or Non-Epileptic Seizures?! Do NOT be dismissed by doctors.

Dr. Elahi is a board-certified neurologist with over 20 years of experience diagnosing and treating patients with various types of seizures including non-epileptic spells (PNES), aka psychogenic non-epileptic seizures. Dr. Elahi briefly discusses key clinical features of and treatment options for patients who are often frustrated with many in the medical field who are at a loss in this context. Many patients with PNES often feel dismissed and sometimes completely ignored. Other conditions that are often associated and/or comorbid with PNES include POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), functional neurological disorder, anxiety disorders, and depression. TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) and other non-pharmacological treatments often work well in this context.
