Well on Monday the 20th, jerry went to have his sleep study done. He made it thru with no issues. Now we will await the doctors answers when we go back to see her. in a few weeks. Hopefully it will shed some light on why jerry is always sooooo tired. I am hoping that if it is sleep apnea, that he can get something that will help him get a good sleep so he wont be napping all day and sleep thru his meals which make him have the severe lows that he has to rush to try to bring up -which is where he over does it and then ends up way high, due to fear of not having enough. its like a bad see saw. He has like brain fog too, where he just doesnt get what we are saying at times.. im like what is wrong with you? youre not stupid! and that is exactly what his doctor said to him at our last visit on the 16th! we cant figure out what the issue is so we can attack it and get him straight. it is all diet related right now.. HE is PAIN FREE from Pancreatic pain. he does have the gastroparesis where he hurts if he has a bowel movement but it goes away and hes pain free the rest of the day or until the next time he needs the RR. The doc thinks maybe he has depression too, and told him to double up his paxil but he and i both are scared of that. So he said he wants to see what his sleep study test says first. then we will see if he ups that paxil. I know if we can just get him to not sleep all day, he could be perfect! if i am home all day and make the meals and put them out for him, he is perfect all day! but i dont have time to do that EVERY DAY. and if i pre make it , he says its not what he "wanted". well boo hooo sometimes we just have to eat whats there. whether or not we "want" that particular meal or not that day. oh well im anxious to see test results and if or if not that it is contributing to his lethargy and scrambled thoughts.
