I think an EEG is down the line.
I am scheduled to do neuropsychological testing too, but I can't get in to see the person until the first of September. They have me on a waiting list to get in sooner though.
Weird thing is that after they did the MRI part with the dye, I felt an ache in my head in the exact areas where they hold the bars or whatever they are called that give you the shock for the ECT. One on the right side sort of in the middle on top of my head and in the right temple. The shocks they gave me were five times the seizure threshold level. I never should have agreed to taht. The headache is gone now but that was the weirdest thing. Since the brain does not feel pain, I don't know what it was.
