[|Human|] I have been having seizures - verified as non epileptic - for several months.  I also have a couple of autoimmune issues. Chronic hives, virility, and Hashimotos hypothyroidism.  I suspect my seizures and some other symptoms are caused by Hasimotos encephalitis.  Which type of doctor would treat that?  An Endocrinologist,  a neurologist or some other specialty?
[|AI|]  Your seizure disorder, non-epileptic or epileptic can be very well managed by a neurologist or an epidemiologist which is a neurologist who specializes in epilepsy.  Your autoimmune pathologies would likely be co-managed by a neurologist for the encephalitic part of the problem along with the appropriate specialist for the primary body part which then, resulted in the encephalitis (e.g. Hashimoto= ENDOCRINOLOGY), etc. Hope that clarifies.  Please rate with 5 stars on exit and write me at: www.bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. P.S. If you have documented ENCEPHALITIS how did you come by the DEFINITE diagnosis of NON-EPILEPTIC event disorder?  Encephalitis is a very strong risk factor for epileptic discharges to develop AND it is not uncommon for people diagnosed with NON-epileptic disorders to have a mixed picture meaning that both epileptic and non-epileptic events can occur at different times. Having one diagnosis never rules out the other.  Cheers!
