Granny's gone and done it again

Your thinking of Tippy Jane, Think it was Mutt that called. Not sure.
I got results from hip xrays . arthritis mild in one and moderate in the the other. as far as heart dr goes:
stop smoking, cardiac rehab is impossible so start slow walking , New meds to open artery's and lower cholesterol. 2-d echo to see my injection factor,aka how well my heart is beating and a sleep study is ordered
Results of todays EKG, showing heart attack and worse then last one. Bottom half of heart is damaged
Records from Nortons shows 50% blockage in my old stent and 90% in a smaller vein.
Now you know I have all sorts of questions, so I will try to pick just two. 1. Do you have to go in for the sleep study, or can you do it at home? I have seen sleep studies on tv where the person is at a lab type place and all hooked up with stuff. If that were me, I'd never sleep. They'd have to knock me out with a horse pill! 2. Is there a plan/date to fix the clogged stent and 90% blocked vein?

There, only 2. Made myself proud! :D
 
I have never heard of sleep studies being done at home. When i went for my study, they had it set up like a hotel room. The thing is they want you to go right to sleep and then when the test is over they want you to leave. It really is hard to get a good night's sleep that way. If you took sleeping pills, then someone would have to pick you up at whatever hour and they would miss out on sleep too. I guess you could call a cab. Oh, and they get that sticky crap in your hair thst takes forever to get out. But it is really important to get the test done because it can damage your heart and brain further as you are not getting good oxygen flow. And you feel tired all the time.
 
you usually cant take sleeping pills for a sleep study. it is a study to look at your usual sleep patterns at home, so pills wouldn't give accurate information.

Using the laptop now, so have to remember it doesn't automatically help with punctuation, spelling, or capitalizing. :( Been a while since I used anything but iOS system.
 
The sleeping pill thing was not an issue for me. I can sleep pretty much anywhere if i am tired, unless my brain is working over time.
Don't werry , Wink we can pizzle out whut ur sayin. Giv it ur bestest tri.:thumbsup
