A L-O-N-G Night at the Sleep Center

Allie had her follow-up sleep study last night.  She knew what to expect this time which made it worse.  She was not at all excited about it, but she willingly let the nurse hook her up to all the tubes and wires.

We turned out the lights about 9:30 and with the help of Melatonin, Allie went to sleep.  She was so restless though.  The nurse had to come in repeatedly to retape wires and rewrap her head.  Allie actually slept through most of it.  I, on the other hand, woke up every time the door opened.  5:15 couldn't have come soon enough.  We were both ready to go home!

We have an appointment with the pediatric ENT in two weeks to get the results.  Our hope and prayer is that the tonsillectomy fixed the high CO2 problem; otherwise, we'll be referred to a pulminologist to do further testing.
