ansar?

Post by raylo » Wed May 13, 2009 3:20 pm

What is an ansar test? I tried to search for it but didn't get a result. My Dr.'s office just left a message today to say that my appointment time has been changed because I won't be having my ansar breathing test. I didn't know I was scheduled for one (and would have like to have known that they apparently had me scheduled for two appointments 45 minutes apart - one being the ansar and the other being a visit with the doctor). Is anyone familiar with this term?

This explains the ANSAR test, I believe.

Thanks, but I am still not sure why one was scheduled for one without discussion. Also it looked like it might be used as a compliance test. Is this a normal test in SA treatment? I don't know of any other things the doc has suspected in my case. I am a little ticked that my appointment time was changed (without consulting me - they didn't ask if they could change, they told me it had changed) due to not having a test I knew nothing about in the first place.
