I looked at all the sleep apnea quizzes and so on, and my son has none of these problems.
His grandmother (my mother in law) has this issues, so I'm pretty familiar with it. She uses a CPAP nightly.
My son also had much sleep walking/running, and so on, for many many years.
He doesn't snore or have any of the signs on the web. Once he is asleep, he sleeps. I'm not sure if he gets to rem all the time though.
THe problem is, the Neuros here who specialize in sleep and sleep apnea in adults, recognize he isn't in their specialty and they are trying to refer him on.
I'll call the sleep clinic in Riyadh, but I've seen their work is all adult, and mostly apnea.
I am thinking of coming back to the U.S. to seek treatment there. Does anyone know, is Scottish Rite a good place for peds sleep clinic?
