EKG'S DO NOT MEASURE BRAIN ACTIVITY. It's an electroCARDIOgram.
EEG's measure brain activity. EKG's measure heart activity.
I had an EKG once because my heart was racing while I was in a baseball game. It was scary only because the day before that a Major League player had died of a heart attack and his symptoms were the same as mine.
During the EKG they put cold metal things on your nipples. It sucked.
