Can anyone explain to me what happens during a sleep study. My blood oxygen levels are low and my HCO3 level is high. My O2 saturation level is low. I snore very loud according to my other half. He can't sleep. Lol. So my doctor ordered sleep study for sleep apnea and has me seeing a pulmonary doctor. So we'll see.

Thank u all. They told me exactly what all of you have told me. Like a hotel room, put my sleep wear on and then they hook all the wires and everything up to me.

My bmi is at 39.8 i have no other co morbidies. My blood oxygen levels and oxygen saturation levels weren't within normal range. Two were low and one was high. I have to see a pulmonary doctor as well. My levels was the level u would find in a smoker and i haven't smoked a day in my life.

Oh ok. Thanks for the info.
