Thank Goodness you have an attentive sleep doc. Believe it or not, most of what I have learned about sleep-disordered breathing is from a doctor in the CHICAGO area! She is a pediatrician whose child suffered behavior probs for years then she found out it was his breathing and sleep! She is wonderful and so attentive to the children's needs. Her name is Dr. Mary Fay. I'll bet you could find where she practices through the state medical board. She is currently working on a book about all that we've talked about. You are very lucky, My son suffered for a long time and NO ONE would believe me that something was wrong. He got to where he was having night terrors every hour and fifteen minutes for about 3 weeks in a row and had insomnia something awful. He would be up until at leasst 11pm and several times 1am. I was so angry at him, but now I know it was not his fault. Oh, here is Dr. Fay's website www.enteract.com/~mfay Be sure and tell her I sent you. Good luck. You have to let me know how it goes. God bless, Monica
