Thanks for the info,

I guess you really have to leave it up to the sleep doc..
It seems to me they were pretty quick to get me in for another
study and then set up the cpap, which I could not tolerate.

It seems odd to me we had no discussion on severity..I think I
should get a full copy of this report and look it over myself.

I really think the ativan I took influenced the study somewhat.

Truth is if I relax and dont have insomnia issues I feel fine the
next day. I dont snore, get headaches, or feel any sense of
gasping ever.. at least since I got off all the meds. I guess I do
take an afternoon nap but hey I just turned 46 doesnt a guy have
a right to feel a little groggy in the afternoon?

Truth is I have done lab testing my whole life..not sleep related
but I know all tests are subject to intrepretation, sensetivity,
specificity and ultimately being oredered for the right reasons.
It bothers me there are so many shades of gray in this stuff.

For now I think I will follow up with some alternative methods of
treatment..keeping in mind this could progress as I age.

Thanks for all your help..
