The really awesome news is that we had an appointment scheduled for tomorrow to hear all the results. Instead of just showing up for the news, I called to see if we could cancel the appointment if the results were normal. Boom! Normal results, no appointment. So happy.
Here are some pics from the sleep study where "Doctor Boy" our technician hooked Will up...
Getting started
Birds eye view of his head. They just put a gummy / gel like substance on his head that attached the electrodes. Kind of cool, but not really if you're the one wearing it.
Seriously, it looked like an electricians toolbox.
The final result - that nose thing was to measure breathing output. The mesh netting on his head was his "football helmet" that we said how cool he gets to sleep in a football helmet. Yeah, he didn't buy that.
You get kicked out about 6 a.m. This was the departure photo.
That's right folks... you go get hooked up to all that stuff, are supposed to sleep normally and then get woken up at 6 a.m. with the bright overhead lights and they rip electrodes off your skin. Sounds like our kind of party.
Of course Will was a champ! He and "doctor boy" our technician got along well and we left with 4 stickers and a chocolate milk.
