Treatment and Diagnosis
Ictal headaches can often be controlled with anticonvulsants.
An EEG can help lead to the correct diagnosis. Even when an EEG does not prove determinative, anticonvulsants may be a first line of treatment if these symptoms are present with headache.

Famous quotes containing the word treatment:
“Our treatment of both older people and children reflects the value we place on independence and autonomy. We do our best to make our children independent from birth. We leave them all alone in rooms with the lights out and tell them, “Go to sleep by yourselves.” And the old people we respect most are the ones who will fight for their independence, who would sooner starve to death than ask for help.”
—Margaret Mead (1901–1978)
