I scheduled DS's neuro eval for Monday and I have no idea what to expect, other than what his developmental pedi told us (EEG, MRI). I'm sure they'll want to do an EEG, but will they do it that day or schedule it for another day? I assume the MRI will need to be scheduled, right?

Probably schedule a sleep deprived EEG at a later date and the MRI later as well, how old is your LO? Normally they use general anesthesia with the MRI's and they require pre-authorization through the insurance as well.
When we were still going to Children's in Pittsburgh they did say they would have done an EEG that day IF the tech was there, but they normally prefer somewhat sleep deprived on children.
