LRMC Sleep Diagnostic Center Makes Night and Day Difference for Patients

Don’t close your eyes to the possibility that a sleep disorder is causing your problems.  Sleep disorders cause many people difficulty at work, at home, and while driving.

The Lapeer Regional Medical Center (LRMC) Sleep Diagnostic Center can help you discover and overcome sleep disorder problems, and put vitality back into your life.

After a referral to the center from your family physician, a sleep study is conducted overnight and results returned to you within a few days.  A sleep study often indicates a problem with breathing, known as sleep apnea.  This causes people to momentarily stop breathing and awaken from sleep in order to resume breathing.  As a result, the disorder causes drowsiness during daily activities.

If you have sleep apnea, there is a device you can wear when sleeping that assists you in breathing.  As a result, a restful night’s sleep can occur and symptoms such as falling asleep while driving, nodding off to sleep at work, irritability and lack of energy may disappear.

Severe snoring, periodic limb movements (PLM), restless leg syndrome (RLS), narcolepsy, insomnia, and parasomnias are also conditions that may disrupt your sleep and can be diagnosed at the sleep center through a sleep study.
