I don't know if I have mentioned it before on the blog, but in addition to everything else (cancer, diabetes, arthritis, ingrown toenails, whatever...) I've also got a bad case of sleep apnea. Really bad - like I stop breathing 35 to 40 times an hour when I'm sleeping, and my pulse ox dips down into the low 80s. But since I've lost a bunch of weight since the last time they tested me, they're going to test me tomorrow and make sure that the settings are still right.
So, basically, they hook me up with a bunch of electrodes (including gluing them into my hair - I hate that part), put me in a room with infrared cameras and then tell me to get a good night's sleep. No husband, no puppies, no water bed, just me alone with my electrodes. Really not looking forward to this - especially since I've been having an increasing issue with bladder control, thanks to Hank sitting on top of it. But I figure I can just not drink anything after noon tomorrow, and I should be ok, right? At any rate, please wish me luck...
