Comments (27)Hi buyorsell, My first sleep study 12 years ago was "normal"........but I had only slept a little over 1 hour, so how the heck could they know?? My internist a couple years ago really felt that alot of my fibromyalgia symptoms might be sleep apnea, so he sent me to a different sleep lab, and it show mild-mod apnea (30/hr), and I have been using CPAP since. It hasn't cured some of my symptoms, but I have more energy than I've had for 15 years. You don't necessarily need a doctor's order these days for a machine, and you can get a used one. Check out cpaptalk.com. Lots of great info on there. Is it possible you need to try a different sleep lab with a different doctor? How many hours did you sleep during your test? We fibromyalgia people also have another kind of sleep disorder, besides the apnea, and as soon as we start to go into deeper sleep, our brain wakes us up. So we hardly ever get deep sleep. I'm not sure of your age, but I have seen so many women develop fibro during perimenopause, so I'm sure its related to our hormones too. Everything went to heck at that time for me. Plus, I got a bad virus, which seemed to make everything alot worse. My father had sleep apnea too. I think there is a genetic component to it. After my sleep study, I refused to go back for the titration study. My sleep deprivation was causing alot of of panic attacks, and I just couldn't go through another night like that. I found a sleep doc who was kind enough to let me try a machine, without the titration study. Perhaps your doc would let you try it, even though your study didn't look bad enough? Your insurance might not cover it though. The newer machines are computers, and they can see and print out what you're doing all night.........number of apneas, hypopneas, leakage, etc. Here's another possibility for you.........you can get/rent/borrow a recording oximeter for a few nights and that will show how many times you desaturate during the night. That would be an excellent way to tell if perhaps your sleep study didn't show the problem. Our local DME company (durable medical equipment)Lincare actually let me borrow an oximeter for free, at the beginning of all this, and it showed alot of desaturation. Then I went on to get the sleep study. No offense to your doctor, but I think trying CPAP would be one of the best things you could try for your fibro. Nothing can be good if you're not getting restorative sleep....See MoreAnother - What's This Bug (Teeny Tiny beetley thing)
Comments (8)They could come in if you are seeing many, to find places to lay eggs (ie, your woolens if not well stored). Look for them on windowsills and inside overhead lights, if you have the kinds with open glass shades that cover bulbs. That will give you an idea if they are using the house as a breeding ground. I watch the lights for them, actually, as I do not want a repeat of what I went thru before. I saw my first one last week. I store everything in spacebags now, as mothballs will only kill the larve if they are sealed inside closed boxes w/ no way out to hold the gasses. I am not sure what they mean for your roses and can't remember if/what their predatory bugs are, but know that they will destroy any woolens, leather, and any protein fibers quite thoroughly. They can be very hard to get rid of if they take hold inside....See Moreso tiny - will they really bloom?
Comments (10)I buy plants for work. Right now our petunias which are 3 weeks old (to us) are horrible. They are leggy, with die out in the center. Chemical pumped nonsense. They look like they are almost ready to be through. My winter sown petunias are lovely, tiny mounds of fluff. They will bloom in several weeks and then bloom from now until the frost in Nov. and never need a drop of water if planted in the ground. I know the nursery bred petunias wouldn't survive in the ground here, and need a drink every time you turn around. And don't worry about perennials. TEENY tiny babies from last year are HUGE this year, (all except for baptista moonlight. Still one stem.) - amsonia has for lovely stalks and I see the blooms clustering inside the flat leaves. Year 2 and it will look like a 4 year old nursery plant. It will happen. You will be happy, and very pleased and satisfied that you did it with seed! GGG...See MoreWhy won't my Endless Summer bloom?
Comments (34)I hear you all. Don't know what these crazy plants like. I have 4. 2 new ones doing well in full sun but had buds when I bought them. One gets shade from 2pm on. Nothing blooming yet. Not even a sign of it. Died to the ground over winter. The last one gets sun from noon to sunset with a break from 2-3 pm. It looks as though it may have one bud coming. It has been in place for 3 years now. I bought it the very first year they were out. Dies to the ground every winter and has never got bigger than 12 inches in all directions. I am so disappointed and stupid enough to have invested in 2 new ones this year. What are the other continuous bloomers out there? I am new to hydrangeas It may be time to consider replacing the 3 year old....See Morehappyhoe
