They give the report to a Doctor, and he reviews it with my doctor, ....or something.

Do you have the leg thing going on often? I gotta have cold, moving air to sleep in or my legs keep me up.

You're doctor is a homeopathic hippie though, what's he gonna do with it? You told him you want this thing right?

edit: Oh and I'm pretty sure it was Piker that battled the mole, he has a lil' boo-boo on his lip.

i asked him to just prescribe the thing when I went. He said they had to do this study so they could decide what kind, and then to fit it. The tech said something about having to go back for another study unless he observed me stopping breathing multiple times and could put one on me last night....which didn't happen. bleh

No the weird thing is, I haven't had it for months, maybe a year. When I do get it it's fierce.

No this new stuff is water soluble, I got a whole treatise on it. It is almost the consistency of beeswax, but water soluble. A lot of water.

You should try it with long hair sometime.

And the stupid technician had assured me when I was making the appointment that I'd be able to go straight to work afterwards, no problem... lying jerkface.

So I'm still waiting to read the report but a nurse called me and said that I only stopped breathing a little and don't need a cpap machine. IF I want to take fistfuls of pharmaceuticals for my restless legs then they will hook me up. They think I should lose some weight.

I probably only stopped breathing only a little since I never really fell asleep and that night was the first time in several months or longer that I had restless leg.

I'm skeptical.
