Hi Cedar -- When I was twice in the hospital for that VEEG that could have lasted up to 14 days the "electrodes?" were attached with a glue that had to last that long but
did not smell.
After they were attached my entire head was firmly wrapped with a sticky sort of stuff like a wide bandage and it did not smell either. Oh, it was ugly but it didn't smell.
Maybe you'll be getting the long term gunk

that's easier to take instead of the 45 minute stuff that's so nasty??
I do remember how the regular EEG glue smelled and even burned a bit but they do have better stuff available. Won't just about any place listen to you if you insist - politely and nicely but still firmly - that you are allergic to the glue? Gee, I hope so!!
