Conjunction Junction, Computer malfuntion...

Tonight I go back to the Sleep Place, get wired up, and now use a C-Pap Machine.

But you say, "Wait, I thought you didn't qualify?"

Then I say, "Ahh yes, there was a computer malfunction and the doctor wanted to do another study because what she could see when the computer wasn't shakin' its booty, was some Apnia behavior. Very technical.

You pause, thinking to yourself, "he sounds as if he is excited." Then you ask, "How do you feel about this?"

Then, I say, "I will do anything to get some rest."

It seems a bit masochistic but to sleep sounds wonderful. Actually to wake up and feel refreshed is what I am looking forward to.

I may wear leather pajamas...

If all else fails simply hold your breathe for a while. That should get the monitors beeping.

Well, if his sleep problems are not apnea related, a CPAP won't do him any good - could possibly even do him harm.

There are lots of sleep issues that are not related to apnea. This is a good web site for lots of discussion on these issues:

If your problem is that you can't fall asleep, it's not apnea. Most people with sleep apnea have trouble staying awake.

If you don't sleep well, go to the bathroom frequently in the middle of the night, thrash around, wake up with headaches, and snore you may well have obstructive apnea.

who wouldn't want to wear leather pajamas if offered a decent excuse?
