Sally chimed in, “Actually doctor, we’ve already started down that path as of last night.”
“I think that’s more than reasonable at this point. Now, for the sleep study, you’ll come into the hospital in a couple weeks or so and stay overnight. The technicians will put a whole array of wires and electrodes all over your head and chest and arms and neck and through them, we’ll monitor your sleep and determine if you quit breathing during the night. If you do, that’s what we call sleep apnea and it may be causing your wetting.”
That got her attention. “Wait – I have to come sleep at the hospital overnight?”
“Well, yes. That’s how we get all the data about your sleep cycles.”
“But what if I wet while I’m here?”
“Oh I assure you Jordan, we’ve seen everything; it’s perfectly normal. Not to worry.”
But she did. And with the study just 2 weeks away, she had plenty of time to fret.
