So true! I live on coffee. I was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea. There was a questionnaire about dozing off at different times of day- put in 0, 1 or 2 for how much/often. Must've been 8 questions, and my total was 5 points. When the respiratory person called for a follow-up, I confessed that I drink coffee to avoid that dozing off (I realized this realized later, after I returned the monitor). My favorite question- do you doze off after lunch (without alcohol). I'd face plant if I had alcohol with lunch! Maybe 30- 40 years ago, not so much. It'll be interesting if I get more/better sleep. I had a consult with a urologist who said that the latest thinking is that getting up at night to pee is more than likely due to sleep disturbance than BPH. Apnea? I stop breathing 18 times an hour, and that's called "moderate"? It was his recommendation for the sleep study.
I used to go years without seeing a doctor. I'm up to at least once a month, and sometimes three times. I'm starting to see the headlight of the train in the tunnel...
Well. There's some random shit, right there.

If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
