I have been to a sleep clinic about 3 years ago for testing. The accommodations are like a 5 star hotel room. Cable TV, etc. I had electrodes connected to my scalp and my legs (with gooey stuff, doesn't hurt at all). I was observed overnight. I was diagnosed w/sleep apnea and restless leg syndrome. My sleep disorders occurred at the rate of 101 per hour! Since I did not sleep enough hours on the first night, I had to return for them to set my cpap machine. Your room is very private, and they have a great private shower there for you to clean up before you leave.

My advice: Bring shampoo and put it straight onto the gooey stuff while hair is dry, it will wash off easier that way. Try to wear yourself out the day of, so you can go to sleep. (I stayed awake for hours watching TV!) The more hours you sleep there, the better.

Hope this helps!
Thanks for this!
