Thanks for all the hugs, sorry I have taken so long to respond. I went friday fopr that test it was ok, but she a woman messed up her appointment and came on the same day. and her computer was down so she could not do all the tests. we made anoother appt for the following tues. I went, she may ask me to go in again because her computer was still down. I was told it takes 2-3 weeks to compleate everything on her part. there were a lot of diffent tests. I felt like I did fine, but I forgot the Sahara dessert is in africa, I said south america. oh, well. I hoppe you are doing better and not having as many seizures. what type of epilepsy do you have?
