Hi Kevin,

If I read you correctly (not like AutoCPAPs - just joking), you can only test yourself on these auto-machines and hope for the best. Sounds like the stock market lately to me.

Kevin, you told your personal opinion about right testmethod before. If a test-center says they do a polysomnografi, can I belive the test will be reliable? Are there any possible sleep disorders that will be missed? Are there any other reliable tests available? And what is the "general terms" for these in that case?
