sleep study

Ricky had his sleep study last week. It was fairly uneventful, aside from him having trouble getting to sleep due to all of the wires and leads all over him.

The results are supposed to have been back within a week but now they are telling us it could be another week or two. However, the preliminary results reflect mild sleep apnea and low oxygen saturation (90-95% when it should be 96%+). I guess this means we will see what the rest of the results are and then find out what the doctors want to do next.

In good news, last week plus this week he has only been out of school one day aside from the MLK holiday. This is a vast improvement... He has been out of one class or another 22 days already this school year! Ugh!

More news when I get it. :)
