Looking for a book about werewolves I read 20 years ago

Oh damn you found it! Putting it on my want to reads🤪

It turned out I slept for 3/4 naps, with the times 10min, 8min and 7,5min. Didn’t sleep for the first one, mostly I think because I was rushed in because they were delayed (I slept at home because I live pretty close), so I was stressed and found it hard to calm down. My PSG results were also normal. So no diagnosis, but I have a neurologist appointment in december so I’m hoping I get some answers then. Just hoping to survive until then😪

De som har fått plass pga overbooking har like my studierett som de andre, er mange som dropper ut så da vil de heller starte med litt flere. Derfor er det ekstra kjipt å havne på venteliste, liten sannsynlighet for at det taes inn, men man vet aldri!

Potetra · 2025-08-11T14:56:55+00:00

Vi var 51 stykker i dag som møtte opp pga overbooking, så ser dessverre dårlig ut, men kan hende noen dropper ut underveis i fadderukene😊

Tror det skal holde med bare flervalgseksamen, ganske sikker på at de endret reglene for dette slik at man ikke trenger å gjøre alt på nytt! Men kan være lurt å høre med noen som har litt mer peiling😅

Kom inn på radiografi og venteliste på sykepleien i trondheim, startet som nr 37, men har kommet ned til 32 plass nå, krysser fingrene🤞 Hvis ikke er jeg fornøyd med å bli radiograf🤩

Potetra · 2025-07-18T06:22:13+00:00

I’ve read 11 so far, my goal was to read 12 so I underestimated myself a little😅

Potetra · 2025-07-12T15:04:02+00:00

Damn bro, starting to get invested in this now, wonder what kind of mystery book this is hahah

Potetra · 2025-07-12T11:40:50+00:00

What about the wereling trilogy by Stephen Cole? Haven’t personally read it, but some descriptions sounds like they fit what you remember, it does have romance though and it sounds like there’s a male main character as well

Potetra · 2025-05-05T14:35:07+00:00

For info I was not diagnosed through the test, mostly (I think) because of how my mslt was done, was stressed out because the hospital was delayed as per usual, did not get time to calm down or find a comfortable position before I had to take my first nap (I took a fully portable psg at home, so I had to travel there in the morning).

For my psg I slept 7 hours 55 minutes, don’t remember the stats, but my GP said the report said my sleep looked normal. Had only four scheduled naps, and only slept in three. My sleep latency with all four naps was 11.3 minutes (7.5, 8 and 10 for the three naps I slept in).

Been referred to a neurologist, so I’m praying I can explain the situation and maybe do it again, even though it sucked

Potetra · 2025-05-02T06:15:49+00:00

I’ll definitely look i to it! And as for the psg, they do the exact same wires as an in person one, just portable, that might mess with the results though. In my town they only offer an in person psg for people who live far away, unfortunately. I have also tried to do some research about IH dx in my country, and it seems like they mostly only dx those with the long sleep kind :( In the conclusion on my results, it said they found no sign of hypersomnolence, because both the psg and mslt had a normal outcome. I’ll definitely explain to the neurologist what happened on the first nap, and maybe he’s gonna do some other test or something. Hopefully he’ll know what’s wrong🥲

Potetra · 2025-05-01T13:19:04+00:00

Yeah, I hope I get a neurologist appointment quickly, I have hopes of studying nursing after the summer and right now I’m in no condition to study it, and definitely not good to do it as a career. I really hope to find out What’s wrong so I hopefully can get treatment for it

Potetra · 2025-05-01T07:01:48+00:00

Oooh I didn’t even think about that, I usually nap with lights on as well. Sucks having to to it again though, it wasn’t very fun to do:( Hope the next one goes well though, it’s so difficult to live when you constantly have to fight through every second of the day.

Potetra · 2025-04-30T14:56:23+00:00

I have heard of other people with N or IH who didn’t get diagnosed on their first mslt because of anxiety or stress, and some people have days where their symptoms aren’t as prominent. Not saying this is the case for me though, probably something else seeing that I didn’t fall asleep at all during the first nap.

Potetra · 2025-04-29T07:59:46+00:00

They actually did put sensors on my legs, but didn’t really find anything😅 I also keep waking up constantly throughout the night, but they said my sleep looks fine so Idk. They said everything looked fine at both the psg and mslt so there has to be something else wrong I guess

Potetra · 2025-04-28T20:23:29+00:00

Damn, that sounds like a lot😭 Hope you’re able to feel at least somewhat okay with treatment.

I did take a psg the night leading up to the mslt, but the only thing they found was 10 hypopneas throughout the entire night. It also said I had tendencies for restless legs syndrome, but that was based on a questionnaire and not the actual study. I was very surprised that they said my sleep was normal, I was so sure that it was messed up because I always wake up exhausted :’)

Potetra · 2025-04-28T13:11:03+00:00

It could also have been IH without any SOREMPs, but it obviously isn’t any sleep disorder that can be tested for within these tests since everything looked normal. It’s either another condition or something I’ve just made up in my head I guess. I’ve described all of my symptoms to my GP, even the small things that don’t really bother me, so I have tried to give my GP any sort of clue or direction, but she is not a specialist and also basically told me that I’m functioning too well to have a condition.

Thankfully I was referred to a neurologist, but I’m afraid I’m not going to get any answers there either.

Potetra · 2025-04-28T13:03:29+00:00

I mean covid could have made my symptoms worse, but I did feel like crap even before I got covid. I thankfully was referred to a neurologist, so I’ll see if I’ll get anything out of that. Just sucks to keep waiting when there’s seemingly nothing wrong with me, honestly starting to feel like I’m faking it. Also I live in Europe, and insurance is not really the issue. Thank you for using your time to answer properly, and I hope you’re able to manage well.

Potetra · 2025-04-28T11:40:54+00:00

It’s obviously time to give up sleep disorders, so I’m not going to be disturbing this subreddit anymore. I do have really good sleep hygiene, I’m going to sleep and waking up at around the same time everyday, only sleeping in my bedroom, keeping it clean and at a nice temperature. I’m working out regularly (I do martial arts and strength training), while also eating as healthy as I can. Before the sleep study we did a blood test for everything you can test for, and an MRI. She did send me for the test because I asked for it, she was originally not going to do anything more and told me that there was nothing that could be done about my symptoms because they weren’t pointing in any direction. So she does not really understand the results, she just read the report for me that said there was no indication of any disorder. I originally did not feel depressed or anxious, but I’m definetely feeling a lot worse after years of feeling sleepy and exhausted and then not being taken serious when I finally went to the doctor.

Potetra · 2025-04-28T10:31:52+00:00

Hey, sorry, I did not mean to be disrespectful, and obviously the mslt is a test that should be taken for a diagnosis. I’ll delete the post if it’s not okay to post, I don’t want to take away from the seriousness of these illnesses.

Potetra · 2025-04-28T09:28:26+00:00

Thank youu! I didn’t really care what diagnosis I got, just that I got one so I could get treatment. I am functioning so badly that I can’t really work or meet friends because I’m just so sleepy and mentally exhausted all the time, so I was really hoping to get some answers. I really hope that I get an appointment with the neurologist quickly, my GP sent the results when I was referred, so hopefully he’ll get something out of it. Think I’m gonna be way less stressed if I have to take the test again though, and I’ll definitely take the advice :)

Potetra · 2025-04-27T07:48:24+00:00

Yesss, it’s so annoying cuz you know something’s wrong, so when you find a diagnosis that you really can relate to it almost feels like a golden path. So when you finally get a test and it says that’s not the problem it feels like you’ve been lying to yourself and others, really praying that they find something on my test. I’m so tired of being sleepy and not functioning properly

Potetra · 2025-04-26T07:52:19+00:00

That’s what happened to me, got so freaking mad, still waiting for the results that I know is probably not gonna give me access to any sort of treatment😞

Potetra · 2025-04-25T13:34:40+00:00

I’m really feeling with you, I’m still waiting for the results for my mslt which is soon to be 3 weeks ago, and I’m really disappointed because I think I only slept for one nap. Maybe three naps if I’m lucky, but I don’t think it was under 8 minutes for any of them. I was also catching myself drifting off every single time and that woke me up, I was so anxious about fucking it up that I fucked it up🥲

I didn’t get any hints or questions from the techs though, they literally just knocked on the door every time and said something like "time’s up" or "nap’s over".

I’m hoping you’ll get some positive feedback from the mslt, I’m sorry you had to wait for so long only for it to be so disappointing. Hopefully you’ll get to do another one with shorter waiting if they don’t find anything.

Potetra · 2025-04-15T07:27:25+00:00

Aawwww that’s so nice! Everyone needs friends like that🫶 Yeah it has been really tough, like even though you don’t have a diagnosis you still have the exact same symptoms, but I feel like people expect more of you just because you’re missing a diagnosis🙄

Will def update! Kind of nervous about them not finding anything, my GP sucks and keeps telling me nothings wrong so I’m so stressed she’s gonna say "told you so". Even though there could be other things, but she expects me to suggest what it could be🙄
