sleep study?

What do I expect?

The Pulmonologist wanted me to do one since the room air night test had a few funny areas....of course I couldn't sleep well that night. (worst night of sleep in a long time). Anyway, I am unsure what to expect.

This is my LAST hurdle before submitting to ins! I finish the 6 mo diet today...then I need to get the reports from my PCP with his letter. AND then the Pulmonologist clearance. =)Hopefully I will be submitting in the next few weeks!

When I had mine done, the 1st time, they hooked me up to monitors, etc. Since there were irregularities, I went for a 2nd night. I was hooked up to the same stuff as before, but this time I also slept with a CPAP mask on. The CPAP stopped my sleep apnea. Even better, it was no time at all after my surgery that I didn't need it anymore. Just one more great benefit from having weight loss surgery.

I also had to go a 2nd time. The first night I took to long to fall asleep and they needed more testing info. The 2nd time I used the cpap I did fall asleep sooner and I now have a cpap at home and use it every night.
