How bad is the sleep study?

I'm going tonight for my sleep study and I am so nervous and anxious. I think I need to take tylonol PM before I go there. I had such a hard time staying asleep with the pulse ox on my finger for 1 night I can't imagine all that "spaghetti" attached to me. I got wrapped up in the cord and kept waking up to make sure it was still on my finger. Please tell me it's not that bad!!! Thanks, Jessica

OOppps i am a day late. I just posted the same sort of question. So how did your study go?

Mine is Tuesday night. I'm told they goop up your hair - not real happy about that - I'm pretty anal about my hair! And, of course, I'm bringing my Linus pillow - I've had it since I was 5 and refuse to part with it. I can't sleep much now - imagine how much trouble I would have without it? Good luck girls!

They did not really give me a chance to sleep because my oxygen would get down to a saturation of 40 and they would wake me up to tell me to take a deep breathe. Non of the stuff really bothered me though. Not to much stuff in my hair and it came right out.

I had a hard time falling asleep during my first sleep study, last month. I move around in my sleep a lot and felt very hampered by all the cords. At about 2 am, the technician told me I'd have to come back if I didn't go to sleep now. That thread and utter exhaustion at the point did me in. Unfortunately now I go back tonight, to be tested with a CPAP. I am not excited about this prospect but hope sleeping with a mask will allow me to have more energy. I feel very tired most of the time, and since my work requires a lot of concentration, this is not a good combination.
