results on sleep study



Recommended Posts

I finally got the results on the sleep study I had on Sept. 21st. I have obstructive sleep apnea. I have to schedule second appointment for cpap. I am really dreading this because the sleep study was horrible for me. The study started around 10pm and I was still wide awake at 2am. I finally went to sleep for about an hour and was wide awake again. The bed was very uncomfortable, and there were a lot of traffic sounds from outside. Will they have to hook up all those wires again?

Hi. I too had a sleep study and now sleep with a cpap. The appointment after the sleep study was a simple one where I learned how to use the machine and then took the machine home. I use a device called a nasal pillow. It is much more comfortable to me than the mask that covers the nose. It took me a bit to get accustomed to sleeping with the cpap but the health improvements are so worth it!

Good luck!!!

I had a horrible experience with the sleep study, but it was mainly me. The place tht I went to have taken over 3 rooms in the HIlton so it was much like staying in a hotel. The issue is that I didn't like being away from home wi th that dang machine on top of my lip..

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
