Guest guest Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 I havea couple of tests I am thinking of getting with the new year (for insurance reasons it will be best to get them done early on). First is a 24 hour sleep study. The reason I balk is that I have not heard of one person being helped with sleep study results; like its mor for getting disability. The only exception is people with sleep apnea; but I asked an ex girlfriend whom I spent the weekends with to tell me if I breathed funny during sleep and she said I was totally normal. I do find myself breathing quite shallow though especially at night so I wonder if a trial of the air mask is in order just as a long shot. Anyway my question is has anyone heard of someone with fibro or CFS who was helped in treatment with a sleep study; or who it turned out they didnt actually have these illnesses but a sleep disorder instead? I have improved so many symptoms with various alternative treatments, but the worst one by far is walking around like a zombie and nervous exhaustion, like battle fatigue, also called dissasotiation....its a horrible symptom; feeling like I am dreamily making my way through life for the last several years. Feels like if I could get deep stage 3 and 4 sleep things would be much better. muchas gracias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
