sleep study

Had my sleep study last night. And can i say horrible. And it looks like I have a mild case of sleep apena. Which now means cpap machine. Hope it doesn't mess with my surgery.

That CPAP will be gone in no time!

The CPap won't mess with the surgery at all. You'll just need to bring it with you. Since the surgery I have stopped snoring and don't use my machine anymore. You'll be fine. I found out the same way you did.

I also did my sleep study last week when the tech arrived with CPAP during the night I thought I was going to go into a panic attack. Just what I need more comorbities... I don't know how I can make myself sleep with that horrid thing between now and surgery

Go through the motions of getting the machine and bring it to the hospital. I also had mild sleep apnea and wearing the machine on the hospital overnight was peace of mind. Sleep apnea is worse after anesthesia and narcotic pain killers. I have not used it since being home.

I know i almost had a anxiety attack myself. I pray the next five months go by quick.

I had the test. I was told I had moderate sleep apnea. That I stop breathing an average of 9 X per hour and that my O2 levels go down to 70 each time. Then I never heard another word, no CPAP no nothing. That was a waste of 225.00 out of pocket.

I couldn't have my surgery until I did my 30 day compliance. I had to use the CPAP machine for 30 days straight and then the report was sent to the doctor before my appointment. If I didn't do this then my surgery would be cancels and also insurance would not pay for the machine.

Check with your insurance and with your surgeon's policy.

Hopefully that was just your insurance. Mine didn't require that.
