Thanks for the responses! My pdoc ordered the test because of my complaints of fatigue on 60 mgs. I take no other medicines at the moment, except a flintstones vitamin (all the stomach can handle).
I thought the fatigue might be that I was missing REM sleep since if I forget a dose I have wild dreams--like a rebound.
I see the pdoc in 1.5 weeks, but my follow-up at the sleep clinic is not until June. I do have a chronic pain disorder (not fibro or CFIDS), but I was not in a great deal of pain during the night of the study. The alpha-delta can be associated with pain syndromes, but they it's unclear whether its cause or effect.
In the meantime, I'm down to 30 mg. Still tired, but who knows how long it'd take to be better if it were the meds.
