Let's talk about the surgery "sleep study" that happens .. occasionally. At night, I mean.

Who here has had it? What did they do to you? If you don't feel safe saying so in public, if you could just give me a 'yes' or something to let me know I'm not alone, it wouldn't make me feel any better, but.. um.. just, please answer, okay?

The man who was operating on me claimed that he was 'improving' me, if such words are to be believed. I have also had headaches.

As did I. I'm not saying it's punishment; I simply don't believe that their choice of...subjects is random.

That's.. weird. Well, if you have the headaches during the day, don't forget to tell the nurses. They'll give you something for the pain. At night... well, there are ways to get drugs to help, but I don't know how other than.. uhhh, let's just say the nurses have them at night, too.

Yeah. I don't think so either. I think I'm going to ask my doctor about it the next time I have a visit with her. She's gotta know even if she is kind of terrifying and she'll probably kill me

Thank you for the advice, but I'll manage.

I'm certain my doctor thinks I'm absolutely mad already; that's unlikely to change if I attempt to discuss this issue with him.

Ah- okay.

Well, I mean, we're all supposed to be crazies, aren't we? It's not surprising, I mean, that the doctors think that. Of course, if I actually did what my doctor told me I was supposed to have done, I think I'd call myself crazy, too..

I have a feeling he thought I was comparatively sane before my last session with him. It's of no consequence now.
