Again, Welcome to the forum!!

I was diagnosed in August after a year or more (can't remember how long I felt exhausted) of pleading with my doctor to run some kind of test on me to determine why I was so tired all the time. Finally a sleep test was ordered and the rest is history. I am on my 2nd sleep doc because the first one told me after my sleep test that I failed my CPAP overnight test and I should just pick a surgery and hope it works. I never went back. What an idiot. I found my 2nd sleep doc through my mom's lung doctor, she has COPD. What a difference ! This new doc actually knows what he is talking about.

I agree, if it were not for this group I would have given up and spent what life I had left being miserable. I am so grateful to all of the great folks here.

Douglas, as a fellow forum member I would like to welcome you to SleepGuide. Glad you are already posting.
