Not sure if he is like a MS specialist, he has lots of pamphlets on MS, parkinsons, and a few other neurological diseases.
NO I have not see a rhymey so far...
Evoked potentials measure the timing of the nerves reacting to stimilus.. so for eyes, you stare at a checkerboard screen staring at center dot..and the checkerboard keeps flashing flipping the white and black squares.
each type you have electrodes hooked up to you to track and measure your nerve reaction time.
wondering if right leg or arm were reacting slow..hmmm we will see.
I read on line when typed in evoked potentials, talks about it being another step in MS diagnosing, or other nerve type things..but didnt mention what else...most focused on evoked for MS testing.
I am not expert though lol...
found that Teri Garr book Speedbumps on sale the other day, at walgreens so I bought it..looks like an interesting read.
I will probably have results in mail before my apt with the neuro...I asked hospital to send me copies too. My apt with this neuro is feb 18th.
as a new patient long wait to get into this neuro, this is someone I heard about, requested a referral to him back in summer..and this January apt was first time I could be seen ...wow..
hugss all, sarah and thanks
