How is Insomnia Diagnosed and Treated?
At ENT Facial Plastics and Sleep Disorder Center, Dr. Seymour will begin by performing a physical exam and getting your medical, family, and sleep history. He may have you keep a sleep diary or prescribe your sleeping pills for a short period of time. If he discovers you have chronic insomnia, he will suggest treating the root cause of the health problems keeping you up at night or he may suggest behavioral therapy to help you learn how to promote good sleep.
