i feel for you booger baby and other goons with probable sleep apnea. pretty sure i'm the same. i ended up with floppy eyelid syndrome and the dr told me it's usually linked, and i have had trouble sleeping for many years. it's a bit better these days as the pills i take for anxiety also help with sleep so i was told to take one before bed each night. still get poor quality sleep often though. nothing worse than sleeping for 10 hours and still having no energy the next day.

yeah i'm waiting to hear about when/if i can get a sleep study and get properly diagnosed. luckily i'm in a free healthcare country but it'll probably take a while because they're slow af with non emergency stuff. i got an apology letter from the NHS after i finally had an operation on my eyelid and it was something like, "we aim to see patients with your circumstances within 90 days, we took 210, sorry about that"

PC LOAD LETTER posted:Lucky indeed! thanks for the info. i do worry that i won't be able to get to sleep during the tests and my general anxiety doesn't help with that but it's worth a go. i always hear stories from people who get a cpap or whatever treatment for their sleep apnea and after one nights sleep they're like, "holy poo poo this is what it actually feels like to be well rested!" and yeah i'm super lucky about it all being free which is why i try not to complain about stuff like waiting.

dervival posted:yeah, it's just frustrating that the people in power there are doing their best to undercut it to make it match the poo poo we've got here in the states. apologies if my venting seems like it was in support of anything else, just mad that the world is continuing to go to poo poo nah i get it dude, sometimes feels like for regular people everything is just getting worse non stop, no matter the country. does my head in as well but i just try to be happy with the good stuff i do have or i'd go insane.
