You all are so wonderful! Thanks for your responses!
I'm not sure how long I'll be on leave - perhaps another 2-3 weeks. The good thiing about that is I get to keep my health benefits, but the leave is unpaid and I don't have any disability insurance in place. So, I'm relying on my parents to help me out. They've been pretty good so far - but sometimes they can be stubborn about things. We'll see...cross your fingers.
As far as seeing the sleep specialist, he diagnosed me with Restless Legs Syndrome and prescribed .125mg of Mirapex to be taken at night. I took it last night and it helped me sleep pretty well! I also am going to have a full sleep study done depending on what my insurance will cover.
I see my pdoc tomorrow so I'll keep you all posted on what happens....
Thanks again!! You all are great! I'm lucky to have this board to post to!
Jerry
