Sleep Study Came Back Less Than Ideal

[Guest guest]

Ok, Abigail's sleep study came back. It showed periords of soring,

low oxygen levels, muscle weakness, a couple other things that I am

too tired to remember right now. I heard all of this from a

physician over the phone, and being a visual learner information

sticks most acurately if I read it.

The recomendation from the specialist who deals with sleep

abnormalities said we should send her to an ENT and possibly have

her tonsils removed. I was shocked because she does not and never

has had enlarged tonsils. Even during illness. Abigail's primary

team is sending us to a pulmonologist. They argree that it is not

Abigail's tonsils.

#1 Who among us has been to a pulmonologist?

#2 What was it like?

#3 In your experience, what can be done to offset nightly episodes

like this?

I know, it should not be taken as medical advice. Rather I am

looking for the human experience. I have done research on the web

already. I however am looking for the view from a patient's stand

point, or from the parent of a patient.

Thanks for all your help. Sorry about the typos...I've had way too

much coffee.
