I had an incredibly full day yesterday. I had to get up early (for me) and bring the car with no name (that is it's name) to get some work done on it. Afterwards, I went to a pulmonary specialist since I've been having problems getting the deep breaths. I figured I should get that checked out and not just chalk it up to the asthma. My lungs were functioning perfectly normally at that time. He said that they sounded clear. They drew blood to run a full panel of tests since I've also been unusually tired lately. He is thinking that I may have a sleep disorder.
He said i have large tonsils and a large neck, and yes I am overweight so that does make me a candidate for sleep apnea. He's not convinced that's my problem though. He ordered a sleep study for me, and said it usually takes a month or two to be able to get in to get it done. Then today, I got a call from the hospital saying they had a cancellation tonight and asking if I was available. I said yes, and they called the insurance company and it was approved and it's a done deal. I can't imagine how someone can sleep well hooked up to all sorts of wires. I'll be there tonight, and report back tomorrow on how it went.
Add a trip to my parents for the night last night to get X-Mas decorations out and that's a full day.
