I just called the other hospital and they do their nighttime study followed by a daytime study and will not do just a daytime study on someone.

I believe it would be cheaper to pay 50% of the daytime test, rather than 20% of starting over.

I really do not believe I have Narcolepsy, so I am inclined to cancel the daytime test and wait a year till I would've had to come back to this sleep clinic for a checkup, but go instead to the other hospital where my ins covers 80%. By then, maybe the current debts will be paid off. It looks like I am now sailing on a ship without a captain as someone said in an earlier post. I don't think I can afford either one. At least I already have my test results and CPAP machine!! Am I being stupid???????
