Hi Sandman,
Thanks for replying.

This clinic specifies the hours of the study in their brochure, so I'm pretty sure they are non-negotiable. I don't mind sucking it up and going, as long as I feel it will lead to a genuine diagnosis. That being said, I'm fairly certain that apnea has nothing to do with my insomnia, if it did, I don't think I'd have issues falling asleep. I mean if it was apnea, would that cause me to lie in bed for hours, so tired that I'm almost dizzy, and yet be unable to fall asleep?

Thanks again.

John
