I have a question... Has ANYONE, EVER, done a night at a sleep center and NOT be diagnosed with sleep apnea?

A second, followup question... Has ANYONE, EVER, NOT been given a prescription for a CPAP, BIPAP, etc machine???

63 but young.  Probably had sleep apnea for more then 10 years and did not know it.  Did not snore (or rarely) and did not feel bad.

I am 63 and have had sleep apnea for at least 18 years. From what I have learned from this great site and from listening to Dr Park's excellent expert interviews, I am pretty sure I had UARS for a long time before that.
