Good luck, Kelly! Let us know how it goes.

I too have experienced the "missing for a few seconds" that you are describing. I actually was working the 1st time it happened to me. Based on where I was in transcribing I know I was "gone" for 10 seconds and had a ton of spaces on my computer screen as my hands must have gone limp. I was so tired after that episode and finished my work, called my neuro, and took a long nap. The tiredness lasted the rest of the day and evening.

A couple of months ago when it happened again, I wasn't gone for too long but my left eye felt like the pupil wasn't going back to the right size and light really bothered it. I had several in a row. But afterward, I had some cognitive trouble. It took me a few days to recup from that.

FWIW, whenever I have had them done, I have never been able to get in to a deep enough sleep to get the full results, even after being sleep deprived, which they want you to be.
