Neurology s/l "noncommosive" seizure - starstruck

Posted: Feb 22, 2010

I need some help with a type of seizure. It sounds like "noncommosive," but the nearest thing I can find by googling is "noncompulsive" and I don't know if that really is an actual type of seizure or just a description of a symptom. ACK! I would dearly love to have a report by this Asian neurologist with no blanks for a change! Anybody have an idea?

Non-convulsive - maybe??? - sm

Thanks for replying. I'm not sure if this is a nonconsulsive seizure as this dictator didn't give much detail (so I had to leave a blank--curses!), but after you suggested nonconvulsive I googled that and found several good neuro sites. So if not today, your help will come in handy next time! (And there's always a next time....)

you are correct. nm - neuroMT

Years back, the name of the service was to be capitalized if they said the patient was seen by Podiatry or the patient was seen by Neurology. But if the patient was seen by the neurology service, it was not capitalized. Why am I being counted off for not capitalizing Neurology Service? It just looks stupid with it capitalized. I feel like I'm dealing with people who don't really know what they are doing. Very frustrating. ...

I have been on this report for 2 days now. I have managed to figure most of it out but I am really lost on one paragraph.

Also, below is a few sentences from that paragraph that I just cant make out. Any help would be great. Thanks again. Tone is normal no clog whealing. Degenerative reflexes ar ...
