Yesterday, Shaun had an EEG to watch his brain waves. This is just one of the many tests that were ordered when we went to Cleveland to meet the specialist. It started with sleep deprivation; Shaun had to stay awake until 1 am then could sleep until 4 am and then had to stay awake until the test. We were scheduled for 8 am but didn't end up getting to the clinic until 9:30 because the order got lost somewhere between the fax machine in Woodstock and the one in Winchester... maybe its in cyberspace somewhere..
Shaun quickly fell asleep when we were in the room and they were able to hook him up with ease.
The test lasted around 45 minutes and both mom and boy slept. They then wanted to get some awake footage too, but Shaun was a drowsy customer. We are trying to get back on normal schedule now but he is wanting to be up in the middle of the night... Pray for sleep!!
Today, we went for an ultrasound of his abdomen and renal system. Shaun was once again a trooper as they require fasting for 4 hours prior and a big shot of 6 oz of water prior to the test. He wanted to play in the gel so Mom had to hold his hands.
The technician couldn't tell me much but she did say that all his organs are in the right spot and that they look to be the correct size! Praise God.
Now for the rest of the tests...
any idea on when you will get the results of these tests?
