If you have not done so already, may we suggest some personal research on obstructive sleep apnea? We recommend the following non-commercial sites for general information and good links regarding sleep disordered breathing

http://www.sleepfoundation.org - National Sleep Foundation

http://www.sleepnet.com - (educational site devoted to improving sleep health)

http://www.talkaboutsleep.com - (sleep education and support)

http://www.aasmnet.org - The Apnea Patient's News, Education & Awareness Network

http://www.sleepapnea.org/ - American Sleep Apnea Association

http://www.stanford.edu/~dement/ - (information on sleep, sleep disorders, sleep activism and sleep-related events)

Hope this helps. If after your research you have any specific questions about the diagnostics and/or therapeutics used in obstructive sleep apnea, please let us know. You can email Dave Walsh at dwalsh@drwassociates.com or if you would like to do so anonymously, you can reach him at Allexperts.com. In the meantime, I wish you good health and a good night's sleep!
