Had my evoked potential test today
 
Hopefully results by the end of the week. Only problem was that I had taken a shower yesterday. It is such an effort to dry and style my hair and the goop just ruined the back of my hair :(

I hate that goopy gook.:rolleyes:

Let us know how it went.:hug:

i've had sleep studies where they use that gook in your hair.
i've never had evoked potentials. could you explain it?
thanks

I don't know if I can thoroughly explain it but I will try. It is to test the transmission through the optic nerve. So you look at this TV screen at this checker board pattern with a red dot on the middle while an EEG is done, thus the reason for the goo in the hair.

Blow Drying Hair
 
When I had my initial sx back in 04 this was what I hated most. By the time
I showered and blow dried my hair I needed a nap. It was so frustrating

Hope you get what you needed from the test. Keep us posted.
