[quote=Anonymous][quote=Kaymoz]It is surprising how common sleep apnea is. I agree with the recommendations for pursuing a sleep study, which can identify if that is happening. There is a really good "sleep doc" in Bethesda/Friendship Heights who does this. I would try that, though it may take a while to schedule it.[/quote] It is under diagnosed because of the cost and inconvenience of the sleep study. I wish there was an easier way to diagnose sleep apnea. I have a family member who I'm sure has it and will not consider a sleep study. It stops a lot of people from getting help. After the night at the lab, there's the whole issue of dealing with a third party vendor to get a good machine and find a mask that is tolerable. [/quote]
