Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to find out how often major mood swings occur in patients treated in a specialty epilepsy center
Detailed Description:
Bipolar disorder a condition of major mood swings or milder forms of ups and downs in mood may occur with a number to neurological conditions Recently one study showed that these mood changes occur fairly often in individuals with epilepsy studied in the general community We speculate that bipolar symptoms occur with even higher frequency in a tertiary epilepsy center than that encountered in the previous community-based study The goals of this study are to assess
the rate of bipolar symptoms as measured by a self-reporting screening tool in a tertiary epilepsy center setting
the meaning of a positive screening score in epilepsy patients
the utility sensitivity and specificity of alternative screening tools for mood instability in epilepsy patients
the correlation of mood instability with seizure-related variables
the relation of a positive screening score on quality of life
