Guest guest Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 I don't know your exact situation, but I can share things I have done when my son has had a medical procedure to ease his mind: arranged in advance that more time is needed asked that the overhead lights be dimmed, if possible brought a koosh ball or music on a cd player written my own social story about the particular situation I hope 's ekg goes well.
