A couple months back I had an over night and a day time sleep study done.
That was fun. Not. lol. In my head I thought it would be great. I could catch up on my sleep while I was there. YEA… NO. I seriously felt like I didn’t sleep the whole time I was there.
Fast forward to a couple weeks ago when I finally got in to see the doc and get my results.
For the day time study- I had to take 5 naps 15minutes long each. (yea… thats not a nap for me- thats just torture). During each of those naps, I feel asleep with all of them. The doc was amazed. He said most the people he see’s maybe fall asleep with 1. ONE!!! I fell asleep with all of them!! (Though I didn’t think I did with any of them.)
For the night time study- I was told I woke up a minimum of 15x an hour!!! How does that even happen?? Especially with out me even knowing it??
So now we are trying Armodafinil and Modafinil to see if those help during the day and then different sleeping meds to help me sleep at night. So far the sleeping meds just seem to make life work.
We shall see. I just want to not feel like I want to sleep all day long. I am tired of always being tired.
**** Update. I have decided to switch docs after arguing with mine for 20mins about what dosage I was on and him swearing that I was wrong and that my pharmacy had mis-labled everything. So, Heres hoping the new doc can help more!
