Default lack of sleep

I had a sleep study last week - will see what it shows. The place I had it specialized in sleep apnea and I do not think that is what is causing my sleep disturbance. In any case the technician said they coded 2 hours of sleep in an 8 hour period. I only remember being awake for the first 2.5 hours so not sure what happened during the study. I do know i was dead tired when I was awakended.

I know sleep disturbance can be associated with TBI but it takes extra monitoring of the brain waves to sort out the cause. The initial test are mainly to rule out apnea.

Anyone else have a sleep study and did the results lean toward a brain cause or something else??
