Sleep Study In Progress

[SkinnyRicki 34]

Am here and all wired up, this has got to be the wierdest thing I have ever done! The room is nice an the bed is comfy so that is a plus. I hope I can sleep, it is lights out pretty soon! Cross your fingers for me

Mine was awful. I got about a half hour of sleep.< /p>

It is an interesting experience! I slept like a baby and yes, the beds are super comfortable at most of those facilities. It is weird b/c the rooms are wired with infared and night vision cameras so they can watch you while you sleep. So freaky!

My expirience was ok. But i couldnt sleep in a bed that wasnt my own. I felt wierd with all does wires and devices. They told me i slept only 45 min but it felt like five. They were able to see i had sleep apnea, but i still dont understand how since i didnt sleep almost nothin. I dont really go into deep sleep because i usually feel like ive stop breating or sometimes my snoring wakes me up. It kill me cause im always tierd and i wake up with a a sore throut. But no i didnt like it at all

Also has to do with the sensor they put in your mouth. At least for me it was very uncomfortable. I slept a total of 2hrs but it felt like 30min. Appharently the average person stops breathing 7 times. Some doctors will try to pass that as sleep apnea. Or maybe I was just rambling lol

My first sleep study wasn't bad. But I also made sure I was exhausted the day of it so I fell asleep fast. I deliberately got like no sleep before so I could sleep lol. Part 2 however with the CPAP was HELL. I have the CPAP now at home and it's not as bad, the face mask they gave me made so so claustrophobic. And my sleep tech was a rude jerk- truly awful night. I hope your experience is better!! Good luck!

Everything seemed to go ok but I got like no sleep at all... I came right home and went back to bed for a few hours! They didn't say they had to reschedule me or anything so hopefully they got the info that they needed. This was my first sleep study and I an sincerely hoping that I don't have sleep apnea! I won't find anything out for 10 days when I have my follow up appt... I hate all this waiting, makes me crazy!

I was able to sleep and slept fairly well. I didn't think I would wilt that wire thing up my nose but the teck said I woul get use to it in an hour and she was right, thank God!! Fortunately I do not have sleep apnea!! I am very grateful I don't have to deal with the cpap machine! Good luck everyone!

Just an update!! I just got back from my follow up and I do not have sleep apnea!!!!! I am so thankful for that!! And shocked that I actually slept a little over 6 hours I did not think I even got close to that! I do have periodic leg movements that wake me up quite a bit but she said that is common for someone who has had knee surgery as I have. She said once I reach my goal weight if it is still happening they ban give me meds to help! I also am not spending much time in REM sleep so that us why I am so tired, but I am just do happy that I don't have apnea! I think I did a little happy dance!!
