I returned the equipment from the sleep study this morning. I was able to sleep with it on after all. Now we wait and see what they say.

The salad from Walmart's deli was good. Nice and fresh. I'll have to get it again.

I have a headache however, so I'm going to watch the replay of my webinar this afternoon and power-nap. Well, I overslept my ( Read more... )

Sleep studies used to be done at a sleep center. You'd stay all night there all hooked up to stuff while someone monitors. That's how Ray was tested 5 years ago when he was first diagnosed with sleep apnea in January 2017.

He needed a new study after 5 years in order to get a new CPAP machine to replace the one he has which is recalled because it causes cancer. (And I also think it's routine to retest after a certain number of years.) But this time they sent him the sleep study equipment and he did it at home. It wasn't easy! The first night he tried it, he did something wrong when removing the equipment and he worried the test was negated. So, he did it the second night and it fell off DURING the night, definitely negating the results! Sheesh. But, he sent back the equipment, hoping one of the nights gave accurate results. It turns out that the first night's results were ok, and he is now getting sent a new CPAP machine.

I sure hope you get moved soon. I'm sure you're looking forward to more stability in your life!

I hope you are able to get everything straightened out.

Also, I hope you have a lovely birthday! I don't want to forget it, so I'm making sure I mention it here. Birthdays are special.

Don't worry about responding to comments, it sounds like you could do with some self-care time.
