Finally!!!!!!!!!!

I'm there with ya.

One night I took apart the dishwasher and left all the pieces in the kitchen sink. When I got up the next morning I searched the house for the crazed plumber.

Hmmm, maybe I have the same problem? My sleep is long and restless, and includes weird dreams (many), itching & scratching, getting up to pee 4-6 times, and after 12 hours I still feel groggy. I have no energy throughout the day. Could it be I have the same sleep disorder?

You might need to have your blood sugar checked. If it's high it can cause you to pee frequently and itch.

it also could be obstructive sleep apnea. I am a skinny gal and have just been diagnosed - after years of misdiagnosed sleep problems. Apparently not being an overweight male made the diagnosis hard. Still working to get the CPAP machine sorted out. lots of diagnostic quizzes on the internet before asking your doc about it. Thank goodness the only time I did things in the night was the first night of an interesting pain/sleep med. If I'd thought of dismantling the dishwasher, I know I would've too that night. I'll be checking my blood sugar though just to be sure that's not contributing.
thanks ya'll.

Yeah, my DH has obstructive sleep apnea. He's on a CPAP and oxygen at night.
It was the sleep study they did on me that showed I didn't have sleep apnea, but the EEG they also hook you up to showed the sleep disorder. Our doctor calls mine a primary sleep disorder, whereas the OSA is a secondary.
