my first appt with Dr Sampath
Congrats!!!! I didn't find the sleep test bad at all. I had the overnight oximetry one and then the one at the sleep lab at the hospital here, that was interesting since you have to try to sleep with all this stuff hooked up to you. I actually have to repeat the sleep test since I was told by 2 drs. that I didn't have sleep apnea, but Dr. Sampath told me that based on the results of the hospital test I have very mild features of sleep apnea and therefore he considers it positive and I have to start CPA***** surgery. My GP told me today that I have to repeat the sleep test before I can start CPAP so waiting on a call for that.
Wow, all of that to say congrats on completing some of your tests so quickly!!! When do you see him again??? I go on May 13.

OMGoodness, I'm so glad I found this site/thread!! I am scheduled to see Dr. Sampath for my first consultation in a few weeks and I can hardly stand the wait!!! I'm so excited for you - 3 months until surgery?! That's not too bad!! Does EVERYBODY have to have the sleep tests? Of anything, I think I'll look forward to that the least!
