Sleep study tonight!
Just got a call from the sleep study center, and they want me to come in tonight! Usually it takes months to get in, so maybe they had a cancellation. Can't believe that everything moved so fast, as my uro only suggested the sleep study on the 2nd & I didn't start looking into it until about Mon. Now I'm going to dream that they find a reason for my poor sleep & then a treatment for it...

Well, no sleep apnea (which the lab tech could detect), so I'll have to wait for a week to get the doctor's analysis of my sleep study back. I really hope they find something that can be treated.IC & fibromyalgia since ~'77. Osteoarthritis since ~'88. Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura (autoimmune blood disease) since '96.

Just for poor sleep (feeling trashed in the morning, falling asleep while driving, while working, etc.). As they say, I don't have a "sleep partner" to report on any unusual things while I'm sleeping.IC & fibromyalgia since ~'77. Osteoarthritis since ~'88.

I am a fibromyalgia patient, and I would wake up exhausted, and I had to quit driving because when I drive I get very tired. I don't work or anything so I used to just fall asleep anywhere. The problem was that I was not able to get into that deep stage of sleep, which was why all of this was happening. Since I began Neurontin, it helps me sleep at night and I get into that deep sleep stage. I didn't even know I was missing it.Mommy to 2 crazy, wonderful kids and wife to the most amazing man in the world!Comment
