Back from EEG

I'm back from the EEG. It went a lot quicker than I thought it would. It took 10 min. for the woman to put tons of probes on my head and the test itself took maybe 15 min.

She told me to keep my eyes closed and I had to get a kick out of that. She knew they were open by looking at the scan, not my eyes. She said when I blinked, it screwed up the test. It's near impossible to keep your eyes shut when you're laying in your back in a hospital testing room.

She had me breathe deep and that did make my face do its thing. So, if anything, that should show up on the test. I don't know what it is or means, but it should help the people reading the results.

I'm very scared for the results but I have to tell myself that this has been going on for weeks and the results don't change anything. It is what it is and I'll figure it out.

So, that's all for now. I may try to take a nap. I cheated on the less than 6 hours of sleep rule. I did everything I could to stay awake until 12:30 last night and gave up. I set the alarm at 6:30 but when it went off this morning, I hit the snooze every 7 min until 7:30. I couldn't help it. I was just too tired. I don't think it'd normally be a problem so I think I'll blame the pregnancy.

I'm really glad the test didn't take too long and it wasn't so bad for you. I hope you can get some rest.
