One of the problems in my region is that there are "sleep laboratories" opening all over but most are not accredited and don't have board certified sleep docs. And when you call for information they only deal with sleep apnea. The majority have respiratory therapists run the study and a pulmonologist interpret them. It's big bucks for them and poor diagnostics for us. Tom
