S.D.,
An EEG can show if you have a lowered seizure threshold even if you haven't had any seizures. A lowered threshold means you have a greater-than-average possibility of a seizure. The EEG can't predict if you will actually have a seizure or how severe it will be if you do have one. The EEG can also identify some possible triggers for seizures, such as a photic (flashing lights) response.
