endoscopy for sleep apnea!?!?!

I have them because i have barrett’s esophagus.

Never heard of it for what you’re getting.

THEY CALL non stop to see if you need new supplies lol

Bill your insurance company once a month forever for GOD knows what reason.

And now that it’s down that I have apnea, i would have to use it for any hospital stay. Rather die at home lol.

I HATE that machine

They put you under for 15 minutes, and see exactly why and where your airways are collapsing. That way, they can determine if you are a candidate for surgery and, if so, which one.

I truly hate the machine, as well. I also tried the dental guard. That made my teeth hurt so badly I couldn't eat. But I have to do something, because I now have a heart condition, possibly caused by apnea.
