On Tuesday I have to get an EEG and they've told me that it would be best if I get as little sleep as possible the night before. They are hoping that if I deprive my body of rest then there could be a higher chance of me having an episode during the procedure. I was wondering what others have done to help them stay awake for most of the night. I'm planning on renting movies and just sitting under the desk lamp all night long. I have to stay up long enough for my appointment is at 5pm. So what does everybody do to help them stay up?

Hi and welcome to PC...Hey can you maybe have humans keep you awake?? Like friends taking turns? Do some late night early AM chores..even paint a room stuff like that? Have an adult PJ party ..um not adult rated .....you cannot do caffine and have a clean test so try to stay awake doing things may help

When I need to stay up for extended hours (and it isn't school related, as in completing assignments) I play on my computer, listen (and sing) to some music and phone my buddies on the phone. (But only if I can find a night owl who's normally awake, otherwise thats just plain mean!!)

Good luck with your EEG.
