OTR, they told me NOT to take anything to sleep! Turns out I didn't need it anyway.

They put something on the finger of my right hand that had a little red light on it. Every time my hand moved in front of my face during the night, I'd wake up. I tend to move a lot at night, so I woke up a lot but somehow I slept long enough for the study.

Good luck. I had a sleep study done. Its hard to sleep at 8pm with insomnia lol. They woke me up every 30 min (mask, check finger sensor, another mask, chin strap, ect) then the goo the put on your head. My results were not good. They called me the next day for my machine. I have been using my cpap every night for the last couple months. I can tell a difference with it.

I tossed and turned the while night of my study! Wish I could have had ambien! I am still scared that they didn't get enough info to know whether or not I have apnea!

I wouldn't worry, they can really get all they need in about 1hr of sleep.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
