What Miss Bratperson said! Seriously if you think you have a problem you do need to get the study done. If you have insurance it should cover all of it but about $1,000
As she said if you don't treat it you can end up dying from sleep apnea damaging your heart. There is a famous athlete whose name I can't remember but you would recognize who had sleep apnea and was supposed to use his CPAP machine but because he was such a ladies man bedding a lot of women he didn't use it much if any. He died of a heart attack they attribute to him not using it.
The fancy machine I have retails for around $900 or so but I found them on the internet for around $500-$600 I think. The ramp model has to be programmed from a Dr.'s instructions though as to the range and the regular ones also have to have their constant pressure set by a Dr. based on your sleep study.
I saw one place advertising a new type sleep study now that does not require you to spend the night at a sleep center but they send you home with all of the machinary, wires, hookups, etc and you sleep in your own bed.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
