    Gosh, you're actually overestimating Sleep Pointe a lot. They're not doctors, and they don't do anything after you get the machine other than check your compliance for the company you work for. There's no follow ups. I had a video conference with "my doctor" a day after the test. The less than 2 hours without the mask Sleep Study. After you get the mask, all they'll tell you when you tell them you're more tired is that there is literally nothing they can do other than adjust air pressure. You need to see your own doctor to get anything done. Sleep Pointe couldn't care less after they rape you on the test and sell you a machine. You don't even have control over the machine settings they sell you if you're a driver, lol.

    I believe the condition in which ye' suffer is technically called, "Crete-Apnea."

    Then for Heavens sake go see your Dr. Your primary Dr.'s first job is your health and well being. I would think that you could get a retest from another sleep lab since this one you are dealing with seems to operate under questionable tactics.
    Can I ask what the threshold is (episodes per hour) for your company? The co my driver works for had it at 15 per hour, which I understand is higher than most.
