Evoked potential test?
Has anyone had one of these? They put electrodes next to your eyes to test the nervous system and takes around 45 minutes. It registers the information going from your eyes to your brain, the neurologist that i saw on Wednesday wants me to have this test and has already sent the appointment through for next week!! She obviously wants me to have this test urgently. I can't have it done next week as i am busy but i am scared about it.
It says in some instances i will be asked to look into a tv screen or at a flashing light. Sometimes electrical pulses are used to stimulate nerves in the arms and legs. Sometimes clicks are applied to the ears by headphones.
I know that all of this will start off my symtoms big time and also probably a panic attack from the symptoms and i know that this is what they will be hoping, so that they can see what is going on, but i am scared and don't know if i can do it. Anyone had one of these tests done?x
