I have seen nothing in this study that has not been known for at least 30 years.
(I managed the sleep lab at GCCH in Biloxi from the time it opened in 1985 until 1991. Provided home care to sleep patients from 1992 until Katrina took my business.)
What do you know about the “appliances”. I had (still have?) one from 10-12 years ago which would thrust my lower jaw forward and keep it there. The problem, not counting the slobbering, was that every morning when I woke up my teeth hurt, kinda like when you’re a kid and you’ve got a tooth about to fall out, execpt this was all of my teeth. I figured this couldn’t be good for my teeth.
And I’ve had my brush with Sudden Cardiac Death. On Nov. 25th I was playing golf, feeling a little tired but not overly so, standing over a putt on the 16th hole. I got dizzy and lightheaded and tunnel-vision set it. I had opened the door to SCD and stepped in. My implanted defibrillator jerked my back out.
I’m going to talk to my doctor about another sleep study.
