Sleep study!!
Hey everyone, happy new year!
Well I had my sleep study done, good times had by all! Apparently I don't snore like I've been told, actually slept like a baby. No snoring hubby and restless five year old! I was very apprehensive, almost scared (36 yr old chicken I am!) to have one, if it wasn't needed. But have heard from my OH pals it was a good start for the ducks in order. Anyways got all hitched up to their equipment and slept little, but yay no sleep apnea!! Next I drove to Ottawa and had my blood work at the civic, apparently I was dehydrated, really fasting for 12hrs like I was told, but I'm getting closer to the prize! Thanks for encouraging words to go! happy Saturday everyone!!

Happy New Year to you too Robin.
One step at a time will get you to your goal. You are in good company. As many have said, we would wonder if you said you were not scared at all. I sure am. But I am pushing through the fear for my own good. All the best in your journey.
