Sleep Apnea? :/

[caines530 14]

I was very disappointed when I went in for my sleep study results. Not so much that I had mild sleep apnea because I knew it would count as a comorbidity, but because I found out I have to do ANOTHER sleep study and that I couldn't get clearance for surgery right away like I thought. I have come to terms with it a little more and just ready to get this last thing over with so I can get a surgery date finally.

Oh man, that must be so frustrating! It will be worth it and your surgery will be here before you know it! When are you anticipating your surgery? Mine probably won't be until early February. <3

I actually ended up going to see another doctor. There had been rumors going around about the previous doctor that he has a deal with the makers of the CPAP machine and he gets a nice cut every time someone gets one so EVERYONE gets one. I got a second opinion because my results seemed so insignificant I found it hard to believe that I truly needed a CPAP. So I went in for a second opinion and the doctor did confirm that I have extremely mild sleep apnea but there was no reason to treat it and cleared me for surgery. I got my date today 12/28. Even if I did need one though, I was going to continue with another doctor. I didn't like the first one lol
