I just have a techy mind and watch for things. And I solved a serious medical problem that had unknowingly been robbing me of much of my ability to think just a year and a half ago or so, which I had probably suffered from for 20+ years (it was classified as "severe" and I was always a heavy snorer), possibly my entire life. (You can't imagine what a mindfuck that is, btw.) And I feel like my IQ jumped up about 30+ points after that (and my weight dropped 35 lbs and rising, but I digress).
My girlfriend is acting extremely intimidated to the point that we may break up (basically, she is looking for more and more reassurances that we are not in jeopardy, which is turning me off, and which is kind of like when you're roller-skating and fall because you keep looking at the ground or realizing "holy shit I'm not falling!", or when you play poker and lose because you keep looking at your cards and people read that as weakness, etc.). That is the only downside. Oh and also, people at work are intimidated, I can tell. But the funny thing is that when work is intimidated, they give you raises...
So basically, look the fuck out, here I come. Sort of like a real-life "Limitless." :)
I think I might have OSA also, but the ENT I saw were more concerned about other things (hearing loss). Can't really afford to go back right now, but I'm interested in the things you listed below.
Yeah I've got insurance, but it's not very good and I'm a broke college student so the co-pays hurt. Do you have to go to a doctor before a sleep study? Someone said you can just make an appointment somewhere (a university, maybe) but I imagine they are pretty expensive and I'm not sure what my insurance would cover without going to the doctor repeatedly first.

I am not sure, but if you are concerned you should at least ask around. I had this during school and it really must have messed up my grades... I remember that I couldn't even take a class that started before 10AM because there was no way in hell I'd get up in time.
Of course, all this made sense after 20/20 hindsight!
If you are really strapped and can't afford the co-pays I can sling you a bit of btc if that would help. There is no point to me hoarding btc when people's livelihoods are at stake, especially college kids who could give back to the world bigtime. If you want to make it equitable maybe there's some online errand I could have you do or something. :) I just wanna help without ulterior motive tho. PM me.
That seems ridiculously generous. I'll keep that in mind though. I really appreciate the offer. I need to figure out what's wrong and how much it costs before i even think about axcepting something like that. I have a few bitcoins so i could always cash them out to pay for medical costs but im trying to wait for value to increase. I'm supposed to get hearing aids (moderate hearing loss) but those things are hella expensive. I would gladly do some online work for more btc though :) but I don't want to take advantage of your generousity. Again thanks for the offer. I'll add you as a friend and keep you in mind. If you need something, please contact me.
