ChicagoRose 650 Posted November 9, 2012 Well thanks again everyone...I survived although they did wake me up sometime in the middle of the night to bring me a CPAP machine which made me start crying but I put on my big girl panties and did it. I will start a home machine in about two weeks and then it's on to a healthier place!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vcor91983 3 Posted November 13, 2012 I had to do one a few years ago and I failed because I only slept for 20 minuts in the 6 hours I was there. My surgeon wants me to get another one done. I hope my insurance will pay for the home study because I can't sleep in strange places Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChicagoRose 650 Posted November 15, 2012 Thanks for everyone's support. My sleep study did indeed suck and it turns out I have SEVERE sleep apnea. You can read all about it if you choose on my blog. Going one step at a time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tattoomommy 37 Posted November 20, 2012 I'm happy i didn't have sleep apnea, but the tech said it was very entertaining watching me sleep o_O well, turns out I'm a kicker, lol. He said i look like i was doing aerobics, i should weigh 10lbs at the rate i was going! I did the home one & it makes sense why it was all jacked up, lol....

Jendkopp 62 Posted December 4, 2012 I just went for a sleep test last night and failed miserably. I'm a stomach sleeper, so sleeping in a strange bed hooked up to tons of wires and being told to sleep on my back did not work well for me. I didn't spend enough time sleeping on my back for them to get sufficient results. Waiting to talk to my doctor this morning to find out what to do next Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kristlynngirl 184 Posted December 4, 2012 I have a sleep study scheduled for next Tuesday, after doing a nocturnal pulse ox last week that showed I have some degree of sleep apnea. I have so much trouble sleeping in the first place! Will have to see if I can take a sleeping pill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
