Sleep Disorder Clinic Appointment

Hey Everyone, Well today (Tues) I finally had my appointment w/Dr. Rack @ the SDC @ UMC. Dr. Rack said that if anything I might have a mild case of sleep apnea. He wants to do a sleep study to be safe. Since I live so far from the hospital, & the wait to have the over night sleep study is 3-4 months, he made arrangments for me to pick up a home testing monitor today in Jackson at BlueDot. I'll sleep with it on and mail it back to the company. They will download all the info & send it to the doctor. I go back March 1st to find out the results. I was so tired when we got home. My butt was dragging. I went to sleep around 8:30 with my little monitor on. And woke up at 2:00am. So here I am. Wide awake and my test completed. Well, maybe not wide awake. Anyways, Thats my update on where I am. Tammy

Well heckfire! A home monitor!! I did mine at Anderson's. If you had woke me up earlier (it's 5:51 am) I would've played with ya! Can we possibly cross our fingers and say March is looking likely??? I hope so... Smooch Arlies

Hey Girlie, Well don't think I didn't wonder if you were up !!! But, I was only up for about an hour and then went back to bed. March is starting to look really good for the flowers to pop up and bloom (HINT~HINT) I really don't want to jinx myself, so I'm not so gonna say what it "REALLY" looks good for. If you "get a date" what I mean. Lets just hope & pray that this home monitor is in perfect working condition. Cause I sure don't want to redo this. But if there was a malfunction or something, maybe, just maybe they will catch it and I can redo it before going back to the Dr. on March 1. But if it works out, it just works out. And if it doesn't, thats OK too. I'd rather wait & do it when The Good Lord is ready for it to be done. No reason to tick "The Big Boss" off !!! Tammy

Tammy, You are getting closer & closer to joining us on the losing side. I can't wait until you get that surgery date! I don't think that we will be able to sit you down long enough to post. You are going to be Congrats Girl, Love ya, IB2R

Well Hey There IB2R !!! I'm trying to get there just as quick as I can And I promise to sit long enough to post it !!! Love ya 2 Tammy

Well, I guess it is better to be safer than sorry. I am sure you did well on it since you were in your own bed and not in some strange place. I sure do hope you get a date soon. Its going to be so exciting! Christine -70 from surgery 36 til goal!

Hey Sweetie Peetie !!! The test went ok I guess. It was kinda strange. Sleeping with that thing on my finger. BTW: NEVER SCRATCH YOUR NOSE WITH IT ON !!! OUCH !!! I'll get a date when God knows it is my time. I'm not gonna try and rush him. He just may get mad at me if I do. Tammy
