Title: Sleep Study
Post by: Rosie77 on May 28, 2019, 12:55:35 PM: Hello ladies...has anybody ever had a sleep study done? Anything ever come from it? I asked my dr for one for all my sleep issues. Why not I guess...had everything other darn test done :)

Thanks! I am already referred and I guess I will get hooked up to a bunch of things to check heart, breathing etc and â€œobserveâ€ me as I sleep...I was more or less asking if anybody had one and found it useful. Hopefully I actually do sleep ;D

Sleep Clinic? will that do? I would love to be hooked up to see how my sleep patterns are as long as they weren't put up onto UTube ;)
