.............Sleep Study

Zach went almost 2 weeks ago for a sleep study test and we just got the results. I hate waiting for test results. I know no news is good news usually but you never know if there is any news (good/bad) if it takes them that long to read the results.

Anyway, Zach does not have sleep apnea, THANK GOD. But he does have many sleep disturbances and they have diagnosed him with RLS (restless Leg Syndrome) Yes like he needs something else wrong. Atleast now we can try to fix/help him and go from there. They are going to do lab work to see were his iron levels are because that can affect the RLS. If they are ok then we will have to medicate to help him. If iron is low then we will start with iron supplements and go from there and see if things improve. I am sure his iron is low, mine always is and he is always very pale (sign of low iron), and always sleepy.

Zachary got his report card and did very well. Marissa did well on hers too (not sure if posted before on hers). Tomorrow is turkey day and we can't wait to have a much needed family day with some good eats. Happy THanksgiving everyone.
