Sleep deprived EEG today <matchsticks in eyelids>

What are the chances of this:

DD1 due to be woken at 02.30.

01.45 she wakes, having flooded the bed & with huge pain in her knee & foot (this is on-going saga. Several trips to A&E, no cause found, but pain is definitely, definitely real).

Now it's 02.30 & she's begging to go back to bed.....'only 11 hours til you can, darling'.

For once, I am glad of Barney.

Thank you, we are back. DD1 did very well. Extreeeemely stressful for her. She hates the electrodes, and was bribed by lots of chocolate buttons. Took an age to settle to sleep, but did.

I got a migraine, and thought I was going to puke, but managed to get a couple of hours sleep myself this afternoon, so just able to hold it together.

Lou - do you think the pain is epilepsy related? DS goes through phases of having acute pain in his ankle during the night and I have often wondered. As indeed I did at 1.00am this morning when he woke the whole campsite up screaming about his ankle

Hope you get some results from EEG.

fatzak, I really don't know. The pain is very real, she is screaming and begging to go to the doctors/have pink medicine. I don't know why it comes on at rest.

I kind of hope the EEG does show something that would explain her behaviour lately.
