doing another video EEG in June

i contacted the Minnesota Epilepsy Group and discussed all my of my symptoms and all, and my "history" and all that kind of stuff and they want me to do another video EEG ASAP because my symptoms so closely represent E..it's tentatively scheduled for June 14th( tentatively because the u of minnesota loved to take their sweet time sending over the medical records to them, i already sent the authorization forms that i had to sign in order to get them transferred over). this one will be 7-10 days, the last one was only 4. is it normal for people to do a video EEG for that long...? seems a little long to me, the first thing i'm going to do when i get out is take a reallyyy long run, i am very active and very hyper, 7-10 days will realllyyy be torture. It will be right around the start of my cycle, when most women have their problems, like i do, and it will really be torture because my periods are horrific, and the only way i can relieve the cramping is getting up and moving and i won't get to do that. i may be screaming LOL. they may have to give me the "hard stuff." Also..I wanted to ask this..sounds pretty likely i will have to undergo some treatment. i have had a history of high blood pressure( when i was obese in my teenage years, now it is excellent), i have had a history of depression and anxiety, and eating disorders specifically anorexia, as well as having very bad kidneys and being suicidal for a short time in my life also. I don't believe medication is a good idea in my case, I think i have had too many issues already and they might me brought back by that sort of thing.. Especially considering my first seizure was the result of my electros getting too low and i hear anticonvulsants deplete a lot of stuff, including sodium. I don't think it would be safe for a distance runner who is wishing to someday go beyond a normal marathon and do the ultramarathons to have meds in her system that could cause more seizures. What do you people reccomend..? I already have my mind pretty much made up that I am not going to take anything i deem something that could potentially make my life worse. I don't see how something that will potentially make my seizures decrease or go away but will potentially make me feel miserable will better my life. For those of you who are the competitive athletes, how did u decide on what kind of treatments u wanted...? And how did they/are they working and have they affected your lifestyle..? take care, have a FANTASTIC weekend.
