Sleep study moved up to today

So, my original sleep study test was scheduled for 9/18. I just got a call from Sleep Solutions saying they had an opening for tonight if I wanted to do it. I said yes after I made arrangements for my daugther. So after tonight, it looks like I'll have all my requirements when I meet with the surgeon on 9/16. Everything seems to be going fast!!

I've never done a sleep study, kinda wondering if I'll even sleep well with all this stuff attached to me.

Last night was the Worst sleep I've ever had. I could not find a comfortable position to sleep in. I'm a belly sleep but was told I'd have to be on my back or side. I was tired and trying to fall sleep at 10:15pm. It wasn't until sometime after 12:30am that I fell asleep and it wasn't a great sleep because I kept waking up. I never have problems going to bed at home, just ask my husband lol. He gets mad because a minute after my head hit's the pillow I'm sleeping. That was not the case last night. I hope they got enough testing to get their diagnosis.

So like. When I have this sleep study will I just go there in the evening before bedtime and sleep and then get up on time to go to work? Or am I there forever?

I had mine several years ago and different centers have different protocols, but yes, that is basically what happens.

When I had mine they woke me up half way through the night and gave me a cpap. That was as a good time for me to go to the bathroom, too.

Then, they woke me up in the morning. They had shower and bathroom facilities.
