so today i have my sleep study consult. i don't know if I'm going to have the sleep study or not. i also am calling the insurance co. to day to ask them the questions in the packet that Norton's gave me. the answer to that will let me know if i still need to try with the sleep study or not.

I can understand that anything but glowing reviews and someone blaming the band for all their woes can feel like someone calling your child (or other cherished person) horrible names. But it is truely nothing personal and leave that emotion out of your replies. If you would like more info from that person respectfully ask for more without accusing them of everything in the book.

It’s an effort for me to get up off the floor after exercising, out of chairs, and we won’t talk about going up and down stairs. I have to stop and rest. I just want to lay down and eat cookies.
