[QUOTE="John6185, post: 2892444, member: 25679"] I have been wakened since a teenager at 145 lbs gasping and coughing. I slept on my stomach most of my life but due to arthritis of the neck finally couldn't stomach sleep. Then I slept on my side and back and that's when I received the diagnosis of severe sleep apnea. Had it all along thru the years and didn't know. I've been to various Sleep Specialsts and sent for. "Titration" test and the doc said, "I didn't qualify." The VA sent me some a sleep study Titrate and the doc who said I dint qualify read the report and said I had severe sleep apnea. They aren't all looking out for the patients best interests so the patient has to try and manage their own health. And Dave, I respect what you have said and appreciate that you don't resort to calling people names-you must be a Republican! :>) [/QUOTE]
