How do you do it?


Posted by Scott in SD on July 31, 2003 at 21:35:34:

I read this forum quite regularly and there are many individuals who offer some pretty good advice, but...

When I read of people who get multiple sleep tests (5, 6 7 or more), different equipment almost every month...how do you do it?

I was tested almost 4 years ago (none since then). My insurance will not cover any further testing. I was allowed one machine, but they would pay for 'routine and necessary masks' on a yearly basis.

Is my insurance just that bad...or am I doing something wrong?

I have checked into other insurance, but with this diagnosis hanging over my head, I could not even begin to afford the premiums.

Thanks....
