Well, hey, student! Good to hear from you. Sounds like the new sleep doc is pretty on the ball. He's treating you for the N, even without calling it N, and that's ok. As long as you get the treatment you need to feel better and live your life, who cares? I'm glad you are being followed by someone close while you're at school. I'm sure it makes your parents feel better, too.

The med tinkering I'm sure is frustrating, but if you feel it's helping you, it's worth it to try out what the doc suggests. Use your own best judgement- if you don't like something, let him know. After you're on and up to dose on what he's suggesting, you can always bounce your thoughts off of him and say "I feel this helps the best, and I'm not too sure about this." Go with the flow!

Sounds like you're pretty content that things are moving along as best as they can. I bet the school will respond soon, and I am hopeful that they'll be open-minded. You're very level-headed and I think others will pick up on that, too as they hear your concerns.

I'm happy that things are working out for you, and that the stress of awaiting the diagnosis and going back to school have passed. Once all the ducks are in a row, it'll be nothing but smooth sailing and straight A's! Take care!
