Lateralized Background Suppression; Hemiplegic Migraine Lateralized Background Suppression; Hemiplegic Migraine. (Five hours after the EEG in Figure 4-63) EEG performed after the sedation with lorazepam for MRI shows depression of background activity over the left hemisphere and disappearance of the PLEDs. This EEG evolution supports the transient nature of her hemiplegic migraine. She showed significant improvement in her mental status and headache but remained having the same degree of the right hemiparesis and hemineglect.
