Sleep Study

Grayson needs to go for a sleep study. His appointment was last week but it was canceled due to a sick tech. So he will have it next week. The sleep study is one more step to see if he truly needs to have the tonsil surgery. He has very large (touching) tonsils. The dr the other day told him he won the prize that day for the largest tonsils.

If he has to have the surgery he will have it at the childrens hospital an hr away and stay 2-3 days, to be monitored. He will have to have the special meds fro the bleeding disorder. We were also told that he can not have any meds except Tylenol and sudafed (forever!). The list he gave us to stay away from was two pages long, with two columns on each page.

So I will keep you updated on the sleep study, next tuesday night.

Wow. What type of bleeding disorder does he have? I can't imagine Annagrace getting through her tonsil surgery with just Tylenol. What will they use for pain control after his surgery? Poor little fella.
