Questions & Answers About Sleep Apnea (100 Questions & Answers about) 1st Edition

I thought It would be a little different, I use a cpap machine and lots of the information I knew. But I did learn a few new things

This book is a down to earth introduction to this very dangerous illness . Snoring not so innocent as thought .

Being diagnosed with sleep apnea can be bewildering. There are the results of the sleep study, trying to deal with the company that provides the CPAP, the difficulty getting accustomed to having air blown into your lungs all night long, and the threat that your insurance won't pay unless you use it nightly (for four hours or more). If the sleep center, your physician's office or the respiratory care company do not lead you by the hand, this book will provide answers to the questions you may have. I found it very helpful, and I don't think I would be using the CPAP every night now if it wasn't for the understanding I developed from reading this booklet.

I thought the book was very one-sided...in other words, basically trying to push the CPAP and continually warning you if you didn't use it. I happen to know there are other options that are also feasible. Some people will never receive treatment and live a long life. Also, I didn't like the way they would say "Refer to Quesion 5, refer to Question 8, refer to Question 12", etc., so you would have to keep going back in the book to review that Question again.

Superb customer service. Thanks a million, it is a real pleasure purchasing from Amazon!The book is great and I have found it so informative and usefull and will continue to refer to it over a long period of time.

Dr. Chokroverty has distilled the critical elements from his other question and answer work on sleep disorders and included some new material to create an excellent volume for those seeking information on sleep apnea - a common yet under-diagnosed and under-treated condition.There is useful information for both the newly diagnosed and those currently treated but seeking to know more about their condition and appropriate treatment options.
