My First Sleep Study

I'm sitting here in a chair looking at the hospital bed that I spent the night in - which I am not allowed to get back into until my first scheduled nap.  It's taunting me.

Last night, I had a sleep study to rule out apnea (I think I passed), today I have to take five naps to determine if I have narcolepsy.

Last night was rough for me.  The combination of the stress plus a couple of other factors (most are unrelated to the sleep study) gave me a really bad headache in the middle of the night.  And I could only take acetaminophen (I would normally take ibuprofen, but I have erosion in my stomach - also unrelated to the sleep study).  If it wasn't for the headache, I would have been okay.

More later, I guess.
