I am undergoing a 2hr eeg and a 72hr eeg. i am a regular cannabis user. these are my first eegs ever. will they be able to tell if i smoke during it?

No: The EEG will reveal awake and asleep brain waves. If while using cannabis you were very relaxed the EEG may show a pattern of a relaxed brain state. But the EEG findings are not specific for medication or other substances.
