Sleep Study
Well, I went in this past Saturday for a sleep study, based on a recommendation from my Dr.
This is my 2nd study (did one back in 08) and have been on a CPAP with the pressure set to 11 - if some of you remember my post from a couple weeks back, I'm pretty sure that I have been mouth breathing.
Anyways, I went in to the lab - they hooked me up to all of the diodes & stuff - and I away I slept
I think it went well and should have the results soon. I'm pretty sure I will be on a BIPAP since I will need adjusted pressure when I sleep.
I felt really rested after the sleep study and the Tech said I slept well, a couple nightmares/dreams but vitals were good -
Stay Tuned - Thanks again for all of the great feedback folks!

what a great sign that you felt really rested after the sleep study. i myself felt like a wreck after my sleep study, and it took me awhile to adjust to PAP therapy.

I'm glad you slept during your sleep study, I did too, had no problem sleeping that night but have not been able to sleep since I got my machine at home,about 7 months ago.I keep trying everything I can think of every night but it's not working. I had a couple of nights not long ago that i slept and I was so happy but that didn't last. I really hope you can do better with your mask at home.
