Hi again, thanks for all the comments.

My problem is that in N.Z I the sleeptest costs $2500 and is not covered by Insurance. I would also have to fly to a different city to take it.

So the cost is around $3500 dollars? and i would have to wait about four months.

When you say 'I will acknowledge that the oximtry readings you mentioned are probably what you would expect', does that mean they are what you would expect for apnea.

Basically, I am really confused and not sure what to do!!!
