What to expect at first follow up?

Post by ypeels » Tue Aug 06, 2013 11:48 am

In 2 weeks I have my first follow up with my sleep specialist doctor.
Will they just review setting on sd card and adjust machine? I haven't heard if I need to bring the machine, card or both to this visit. How will they make adjustments if needed?

Also, my DME set me up with mailers to send in just my SD card. Do they just wipe it clean and send back?

I'm sure I'll find out within 2 weeks but was just wondering what goes on.

Every doctor is different so there is no way to tell you what to expect. Just bring your SD card. If changes need to be made your doctor will most probably advise your DME. During the first few months, my DME came to my house and adjusted the machine per her instructions.

Might not be a bad idea to call your doctor with your questions.
