Sleep study re-do

Post by flagmama » Wed Jan 05, 2011 3:58 pm

I have been on cpap for almost five years now. I feel better but still don't seem to wake up "refreshed". Always want to go back to sleep. Anyway, I have recently re-acquired insurance, and was wondering how often, if ever, any of you repeat your sleep study.

TIA

Quite often the sleep docs like to see you back for an in-lab titration once a year.

Most insurances will buy a new PAP every 5 years.

Sounds like you are due.
