I watched movies all night! Went to bed at 4! I fell asleep in a snap ! I also worked in lab normally doing EEG’s on patients ! They gave me a chocolate chip cookie for being good! I wish you luck 🍀!

Hi, Jenny, it’s not a big deal. Just a bunch of wires sticking to your head. The hard part is staying up all night. Fortunately I had my kids who helped. We baked and talked and baked and talked. It was a good night!! I hope yours is as good.

Not sure if you had it yet. Basically they stick on a bunch of wires around your head and hope to see a reaction to find out what kind of epilepsy you have. I recently had a 72 hour eeg and will be seeing my neurologist this week about it. The worst part was it could be very itchy. But it's painless. Good luck.
