So this Saturday I'm going to the Troy Sleep Center so they can diagnose my sleep apnea. I should've done this months ago. I just hate going in for any sort of medical reasons to any sort of doctor. I'm doing it for my mom though, because she worries about me. Whenever I sleep over at my parents she hears me at night choking in my sleep, it's not only that but my snoring is ridiculous.
It's probably most likely psychological but ever since I saw my family doctor, and he recommended me to see a specialist I've been feeling it extra hard. Like I think to myself "man.. so this is the reason why you're always tired, so now you have an excuse not to do things, or whatever". Not to mention, I've woken up twice this week and actually remembered myself getting up and choking then falling back asleep... where as before I think I just went back to sleep and didn't remember anything.
My dad has this shit. It sucks. I get all the ailments from my parents, blah. He sleeps with a CPAP machine, it's the Darth Vader mask before going to bed. He says he loves it, and cannot go to sleep without one now. But that's not sexy at aaaaaaaaaaaaaall.
Imagine a shorty, coming over, watching a movie, doing it, then falling asleep. "hold up baby girl, lemme just put my mask on real quick, you can't talk to me after i put it on cause i wont be answering you aiiight?" then the constant sound of air blowing in my mouth and out all night. NOT SEXY.
I went in for my consultation 2 weeks ago. I told the doctor I'd rather undergo surgery after surgery than sleep with the Darth mask. She said she'll see what the best option is.
Needless to say, it's going to be interesting this Saturday. I'm bringing my netbook, Grandmas Boy, and an ethernet cable incase they don't have wireless.
Wish me luck!
