Hi Elizabeth. 1) I always ask my clientes who stutter about their sleep patterns. Sleep hygiene measures are usually the only necessary procedures. Sometimes it is also necessary referring the client to a neurologist or otorhinolaryngologist (depending on the issues). 2) As far as I know, just some nights of poor sleep are enough to affect speech, cognition, muscle tension, and other body functions. But affected people usually present sleep disorders for months or years. Sandra
