...I had that test myself. This was back when mz ribit was having nightmares that I was snoring when I knew for a fact that I don't snore. Anyway, they got me this mask thingy with an air pump that blows lint and dust from the room ya sleep in down into ya lungs. I really sleep a lot better with mine. I even wear it when I take one of my two four hour naps during the day. Mz ribit doesn't wakt me up to complain abour her 'snoring dreams' she has about me.

My doctor sent me a kit to wear at night so he'll know if I have sleep apnea. Something about needing to know if I'm getting enough oxygen after surgery...

The kit consists of a nose thing, a finger thing, and a gadget worn on the chest. The destructions say to leave it on until I've slept for four consecutive hours. LOL. I haven't slept for four consecutive hours in at least two years. But right now, my back hurts enough that I couldn't sleep more than 90 minutes at a stretch. My dog is sure snoring up a storm, though. Maybe I'll put it on him and see what they say.

I get a second chance with the machine tonight. I'll take a Tylenol P.M. before I go to bed. That might get me an extra hour. Or maybe I'll just turn it on for four hours when I'm not wearing it and let the doctor think I sleep very quietly...
