Zap...twitch...zap

I spent my day with wires attached to my head and electrodes all over my body. Actually it wasn't so bad, it was relatively painless.


I got into one of those stylish hospital gowns and then Angie, the technician, placed the wires all over my body. The first test was the visual evoked potentials and I just sat there staring at a computer screen watching the pretty lights. Then on to the Somatosensory Evoked Potentials during which Angie zapped me repeatedly making my thumbs and toes twitch. I think the worst part was the gown.


So now I have to wait for the results. I was looking at MS symptoms and I have had most of them at some point since this began.
