Uh, you gotta give us a little more to work with. Have you already had a sleep study? If so, what were the results? Are you using cpap yet? If so, what machine, what mask, what pressure, and how do you feel? What is the purpose of the appointment with the sleep doctor? If you want some guidance, post again with more information about your situation.

At the bare minimum, go up to the yellow lightbulb - "Our Collective Wisdom" and start reading.

The sleep doc will give you a questionire to fill out regarding your sleep habits, etc. and you should think about everything tonight, and make a list as what to ask him such as: are you sleepy while driving, has your sex life changed , do you get headaches & sleepy after a meal... Things like that.. You won't really need to ask him anything until you have a sleep study and find out the results. After that, come here and post your results, then we will have more to go on! Goodluck
