I am scheduled next month to return for my second sleep study; the titration study.  Why can't they collect and adjust things when they do the first study...they put a cpap on me in middle of the night.  As all know, this is expensive even if you have insurance.    Any thoughts?

One more thing...i had the first study, then a month later saw my new sleep doc.  he had them reset my cpap machine from 8 to 10 and then we'll have this new study.  

Thank you,

Hi hoosierkitkat!
See if you can get the complete results of your study.  It sounds like you already had the all-in-one test, a split-night study, on your first night, but an additional test is needed for some to-this-point unknown reason.  What was the rationale for this CPAP change from 8-10?
Write back.

I had a split-night study, but they didn't have enough time to fully titrate the air pressure on the CPAP, so I still have to go back for another night. Maybe that's what's happening with you? They were able to get it for when I was sleeping on my side, but once I rolled onto my back, they didn't have time to finish finding a good setting. Perhaps that's your case, too? Just a guess.  

I just wanted to thank everyone who wrote me a reply to this question.  It is most reassuring to have cpcp buddies who care enough to share their knowledge and experiences!!!  Many thanks and God bless all!!  kitkat
