Sleep Follow-Up

I know, I know. You're all probably wondering "what on earth happened at Jeano's sleep study?"

Let me tell you:

1. I don't have sleep apnea. I don't have restless leg syndrome.

2. I never thought I did.

3. I was wired from head to toe. I'd estimate there were at least 15 wires and devices hooked up to various parts of my body.

4. During the 5 hours they said I slept, I never once achieved REM sleep.

5. I'm blaming that on #3.

6. I went home the next morning and took a shower. I had to work really hard to get the gauze and gooey stuff out of my hair from where they attached 4 wires.

7. Turned out they attached 5, and I didn't discover that till I was out of the shower and brushing my hair and hit more gauze and goo.

8. I now have concerns about how thoroughly I'm shampooing.

9. What were those directions again? Lather, rinse, repeat?

10. The study wasn't nearly as bad as I expected it to be.
