    Been there, and done the sleep test. As a phew have pointed out, expect to be wired up like your a mad scientist and your his guiny pig research, its is hell uncomforable. I wont lie though it took me 2 attempts to get my results the first night i couldnt sleep, than i thought to myself stuff this i will get myself some Xanax for this test, came back a second time and got the test done like a treat. Results came back, up to 40 seconds i was cutting my breathing out for, which i think was mild to moderate sleep apnea.

    There is a thread that i made that could help with further research, revolving around this subject if you would like to look into it roman.

    All i know is, i would never of known i had it, if it wasnt for my ex pointing it out. She couldnt even sleep with me i was that bad of a snorer! She used to record me and show me the morning after. When electra mentioned her ex had it makes me think, she prob left him cause he was a heavy snorer to :P ahah, but im guessing she would of had sleepless nights to without him, because eventually i had to go to the lounge cause she couldnt sleep with me. In all seriousness though it can play a toll on a realtionship, as i found out first hand. I now sleep with a mask and machine, and yet i deal with it and i still sleep, i look like bane from batman everytime i sleep. Truly defeaths the purpose of a comfortable good nights sleep, but its gotta be done

    Good luck!
    thanks mate!

    MISERABLE!! ffirst, the weird dude sees my tatts and physique (i was wearing shorts and a wife beater), so of course the questions. are you a biker? do you work out? .....na, i ride a vespa and sit on the couch all day watching I love Lucy and eating potato chips.... then after that akwardness, he hooks me up wiith these 25 wires. down my legs. alll over my head and face. i'm surprised i didn't have one running up my anal groove. so anyways, he uses this slimy sticky gunk to attach the wires to my head and face. then he hooks up this monster mask and runs me through some tests... ok, blink ten times, now count to 3, blah blah blah.... now he tells me to relax and enjoy my rest!? (WTF!!) he claims i slept, so it must be true. but it feels like i did not. i'm sitting here, still sleepy, groggy, and grouchy. he said i should expect my machine in 4 weeks.

    I stop breathing 68 times an hour. I can't use the cpap. Not many options.

    The problem is, the way it was explained to me, is that there is no guarantee that the surgery will work.

    If it works, and i hope it does for you, then it's all good.

    If it doesn't work.........

    Surgery is the last resort and doesn't have a high success rate. But imagine waking in the morning feeling like a over filled ballon. Are you using the face mask or the snorkel. ?
