No one, repeat no one is saying sleep apnea doesn't exist or that people don't have it. We are saying that the tests, especially the criterea in which they are administered is crap.
Great News! (Kind of)

I can't fully deny that. My first was a home study in which I admit, I did everything I could to mitigate the problem because I just wanted to get to work. #### my health, I needed to earn. I slapped the gear on as instructed then instead of going to bed I sat up in my lazy boy for the night, with a pillow propped behind my head to keep me as upright as possible. Now someone with a milder case than I have might have been able to pass the test in this way.
And just because I have a fat neck (always have) and I'm a bit overweight (I'm sure I'm the first north american with this problem....) I have to do a test???
Wait.....where was I going with this argument.....Puppage Thanks this. -

Make it a 10 pound bar of xanax next time.
Sleep labs do not get to sleep. They will let you sleep the first night to get baseline data and when you thought all is heaven the second day they start waking you up just when you get close to dreamland every few hours.
I already know what will happen if they woke me inside of 4 hours they have a raging bear on their hands medicine is bad enough.
There is no way anyone is going to watch me sleep it's one thing being smashed up in a hospital up to here in pain meds and on heart monitor. But trying to sleep with computers, wires and a staff watching? It's not happening. -
