I used the 50D+ oximeter last night for 7 hours and was surprised to learn that I only went below 90% oxygen 3 times during the night. Also my pulse stayed very constantly around 50BPM I will do it again tonight just to be sure but it appears I need to look elsewhere for the root of my daytime sleep...

Why should I have not ordered it? Won't it help with my diagnosis?

You all are very persuasive. I went ahead and ordered the 50D+ from Amazon. 2 Day delivery Correct me if I'm wrong, but I intend to follow this process: 1) Verify that my oxygen saturation drops below 88% multiple times per night. 2) Acquire an auto adjusting CPAP machine that provides full efficacy...

I can't afford to have a sleep study done so I took the liberty of recording myself sleeping for 40 minutes. I snored a lot. Continuous snoring the entire time. However, I never could detect an instance where I was gasping for air or woke myself up. So I don't know if I really have sleep apnea after...

I found this one but the price is enormous.

RESMED S9 AUTOSET with 5hi humidifier - $785

I found this one on craigslist. What do you think?

REMstar plus m series. (broken humidifier though) $50

1) I have no health insurance
2) I am absolutely convinced I have sleep apnea

With no insurance I can't possibly afford to go have a sleep study done. Can I just buy or rent the machine to see if it solves my problems?
