Hi from a fellow Tennessean, Terry.

If you want a really expert assessment of your sleep study results, you might want to post your report in the "Sleep Studies" forum at this site:

http://www.apneasupport.org/forum-4.html

If you're lucky, "deltadave" (RRT, RPSGT and manager of an accredited sleep lab) will notice it and help you with the interpretation.

I'd suggest you first go to that site and look through a lot of the posts there to see what kinds of reports Dave has asked others to get from the clinic that did their study. The more charts, tables and information you can provide from your study, the more he can help you understand it.
