Sleep Study

I'm trying to get my insurance (Western Health Advantage) to approve me for a Lap-Band. Because my BMI is 37.2, I must have at least one serious co-morbidity.
Years ago I was also diagnosed with sleep apnea, but I don't even recall if I was ever offered a CPAP.
(I went at least 5 years without seeing a doctor and I don't even recall who my doctor was! So I am unable to get my old records.)
Anyway... I am having another sleep study done on February 8th and I'm worried that my Sleep Apnea won't be "serious" enough for my insurance to approve me.
Does anyone have any tips on how to make my sleep apnea appear worse during my sleep study?
I'm considering taking some muscle relaxants in the hopes that it could help my case.
It's very frustrating when your doctors all tell you that you should really get WLS, but your insurance then says you don't need it.

Make sure to sleep on your back during your testing.

 My BMI is around the same as yours... I have the same insurance too. I have some paperwork in but haven't gotten any word yet from the Drs. Can you tell me anything more about your experience with Western Health Advantage? Thanks, Kim
