Matthew, I have never had a VEEG or EMU. What do they involve?
Ruth, That's when they put you on EEG and video in the hospital for a week. They take you off your meds and try to record a seizure. You probably knew that.
Since a couple of you are, or were, in monitoring, do you have any suggestions or insights for making it comfortable? (Beyond the most obvious stuff.) I'm going in next week.
Personally I couldn't use my laptop strapped down to a table. I hated the entire experience.
NO I was strapped down to some kind of table.
