So I was planning on asking my parents if I could get a sleep study done or go to the doctor then a sleep study, but I just found out that we have a $10,000 deductible from my mom and now I don't know If I should still ask my dad or not? HELPPPPPPPP PLEASEEE!!

Asking your dad gets my vote, along with further dialog with your mother on why you feel like you need one. In my perfect world, it should be a free and easy dialog, whether you ultimately decide to do it, or not.

Another thought is that if you do have insurance, the plan probably has provisions for checkups. A talk with your regular doctor is a great starting place for any diagnostic process. Doctors can make great advocates when handling parental resistance.

Always always talk to Dad and / or Mom. We just finished Phase 1 of a Narcolepsy study which paid $175 for talking. If interested in Phase 2 or any more paid studies which may come up, feel free to give us a call. 212-401-7902 RC Horowitz.

    I did the dumbest thing today.  I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds.  I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym.  What a dummy!
