PCP called..

One more thing to add to the list for my insurance! Yeah! I know it sounds weird but YES I have sleep apnea! It answers alot of my questions.. like why do I wake up ALL the freaking time.. why when I do get some sleep I feel like I have not slept at all .. and why am I so tired ALL THE TIME!!! But I can not get in to the sleep lab for a sleep study with the c pap machine until April 5th... so one more month of being completely bone tired and cranky.. hmmm maybe that is why the shrink said I was depressed! LOL I called off of work last night and slept all day and all night.. lazy is what I call it.. but I was so tired... could not see driving in that weather when I was that tired.. I go see my PCP Wednesday for another checkup.. but have to wait until my 10 weeks are up on the Autlman diet to send any more papers to St. Vincents... then to the insurance... so that would be April 6th.... ok well - I hope all the pre ops are doing well with the paper work and such and all the post ops are doing well with getting proteins and water in! ~Starr~

Starr, you will feel much better after you get your c-pap! I have c-pap machine since January and no longer tear off my sheets at night! One thing to ask for on your machine is called a ramp button. It will start the pressure very low and build it up to your proper number....mine is nine. When you start using the machine it will help you get used to wearing the mask and building up to your ##. If you want to go to the support group meeting in North Canton it is next week...March 8th. Sue

Sue, I truely hope to make it next week - last month I was forced to work my night off.. was ticked - but had to do it.. arghhh.... I am hoping and praying that I get that Tuesday night off! Hope to finally meet you! ~Starr~
