The biggest problem I have with the sleep study is all of the monitors and wires they have to attach to you! If you tend roll around in bed much it can be a real pain. Hope all goes well!

I have used a CPAP for 7 years. For me the worse part of the study is having to get up to go to the bathroom several times a night with all those wires!

My sleep clinic has DOWN mattresses, not feather, not down/feather, DOWN! Hard as heck to get in and out of!! LOLOL

I had problems sleeping when I initially went in for my sleep study. My doctor prescribed me a low dose ambien just to help me relax enough to go to sleep. Maybe you can ask your doctor for something to help you sleep

I have sleep apnea, was diagnosed 7 years ago and have had a cpap machine ever since. I love it. Never slept so well as after I got my machine.

I'm hoping the WLS will eliminate my sleep apnea, but so long as I have it I am so happy to have my machine.

Don't worry about if you sleep or not, it's just a check off. Lots of docs ask for it just to make a better case to your insurance company. Since you know your insurance is going to approve it ask your doc if you have to do it for him or for the insurance company? A lot of these docs are part owners of the sleep center they are sending you to so it's money in there pocket and you may not necessarily need it.

Actually if the Physician is doing this, its a violation of the Stark Law. They can get into a lot of trouble for doing this.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
