Boy, THAT was fun

NOT!

Had my sleep study done Friday night. Boy does it suck. They really need to call them "trying to sleep" studies. I spent most of the night tossing and turning and trying not to come unplugged, or pulling off the electrodes.

They woke me up at 5:30am to tell me I was done and could go home. BLAH. Stopped at Tim Horton's, got donuts for breakfast, crawled into bed, and slept for another 3 hours. That one lousy night threw me off for the rest of the weekend, and I'm still trying to recover from it.

The worst part about it, I was so tired Saturday night that I actually had a dream! (If I do dream, I rarely remember it) The only part of the dream that I remember was my best friend dieing. I actually woke up sobbing (no tears, just breathing like I was crying). Very sucky!

I get the results of the study on the 22nd.

Ugh. I got to sleep with 23 electrodes on my scalp once, and it was difficult enough in my own bed. I can't imagine how much less comfortable you were when you knew you were being directly watched and monitored.

Keep us posted on the results. Hope you get to catch up on your sleep!

You're an insomniac too, eh? I went to a sleep clinic once but they gave me a diagnosis of chronic primary insomnia and said it would be pointless for me to even bother spending the night because they were pretty certain I wouldn't be able to sleep during.

No insomnia for me, just sleep apnea.

Could you tell me who you are and how you found me?
