I had my EEG last Wed , Yes they do flash lights in front of your eyes for a short time.It's not that bad at all I was really nervous about getting it done , but it was nothing !I go see the neurologist on Feb 24. I can't wait to go ! This med i'm on makes me tired all the time & really moody . I even have little blisters all on the in side of my mouth! I called my doctor & he said well stop taking it if it's concerning you that much . OMG "STOP" So I can have another GMs alone with my kids. What an A-- !I really need to find a new doctor !
